Product Notes

Tenuta Di Arceno Arcanum wine exhibits an opulent expression of Tuscan winemaking. This full-bodied blend of Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon graces the palate with a complex tapestry of aromas and flavours. Offering notes of dark ripe fruits, exotic spices, and a hint of smoky oak, it's a tango of intensity and elegance. The palate follows the nose, unfolding layers of blackberry, plum, and mocha, intermixed with accents of sage and bay leaves. Exceptionally balanced, with profound depth and a long, lingering finish, it's a testament to the winery's meticulous craftsmanship. A harmonious symphony in a bottle.

Tasting Notes

From a dark ruby, almost purple opaque core, it exudes a moderate intense wine displaying aromas of wild raspberries, cherry pie compote with cinnamon dust accents and red flowers. The flavors match the aroma profile yet are structured with a prominent earthy, lead pencil and dusty mineral essence. Spicy notes of pepper and hints of cedar frame a richness which extends to a long youthful finish.
