Nephrops, Cabernet

Aging in the sea

The bottles are submerged on the seabed of the Adriatic Sea, in the Paguro site of Community importance, at a depth of 30 meters in stainless steel cages. Thanks to the isobaric conditions, the temperature remains constant around 10/13°C, and the emergence occurs after a period of about 12 months, depending on the marine conditions and the season.

Tasting notes

An intense but lively purple red with a fine garnet reflection, it strikes for its impenetrability, transmitting the expected verticality on the palate thanks to its great brilliance. The expectation on the palate is preceded by an olfactory complexity that refers to intense, deep and immersive scents, such as black cherry in alcohol, amaretto and a nuance of caramelized orange peel, wrapped in a hint of chocolate. We imagine a long maturation and a great evolution for a grandiose and fabulously managed cabernet.
At the entrance to the palate it is clean and fine, the great smoothness strikes for the marked verticality well accompanied in the great elegance by an excellent tannin, where the contribution of merlot, albeit at 15%, guarantees great body structure, with an excellent tasting balance. The vertical and savory closure of the mouth is impressive, which thanks to the great persistence brings back all the pleasantness found on the nose, such as balsamic hints and spicy notes. A wine of great depth that calls the second glass.
Excellent for pairing with second courses of meat and baked game, and excellent as an accompaniment to some long-aged hard cheeses. It also lends itself to meditative tasting. Also in Nephrops, the Tenuta del Paguro trademark confirms the evolutionary thrust of the product with a great verticality to support conservation over time.

Under Water Wines method

Tenuta Del Paguro has chosen the sea as a natural cellar for its wines. At a depth of 30 meters, the constant temperature protects them from thermal shocks, while the water filters the light rays that would damage the precious content. The pressure of the sea, like a delicate stimulus, contributes to creating a perfect harmony, and the slow swaying of the underwater currents gives the wine a rounder and more complex evolution. This is how wines with a unique character are born, intense and persistent, with mineral and savory notes that tell of the marine experience.
