Product description

The Roman settler and winegrower Cornelius settled in the Colterenzio area around 15 BC, and founded his Cornelianum wine estate, form which the name Cornaiano developed. He laid the foundations for our present-day wine culture. Cornelius is an elegant Bordeaux blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot.

Deion: Deep red in colour; ripe berry fruit, cassis and a hint of well integrated oak; black cherries and spice on the palate underpinned by assertive but supple tannins, full-bodied, fine balanced, rich and long. Cellaring potential 8-12 years.

Food Choices: Superb with rare roast beef and all the trimmings, rich casseroles, as well as game and mature cheeses.

Grape Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon 60% - Merlot 40% mature 15-20 year-old espalier-trained plantings with 6,000 vines per hectare.

Sites: Girlan/Siebeneich 250-430 altitude. Morainal and alluvial soils with eroded porphyry; south-west facing site.

Yield: 45 hl/ha

Winemaking: Fermentation with the crushed grapes, after which the young wine was left in contact with the skins for a further 7-10 days. The wine was then transferred into French oak barriques where it underwent malolactic fermentation and subsequently racked for the first time in spring, after which a uniform blend was made of the two varieties. Further maturation occured in small French oak casks for 14 months. The wine was then lightly filtered, bottled and aged in bottled for a further year before release.
