1,900 bottles of this 0.8 ha Cabernet Franc single vineyard "Campo di Tenaglia" (at an altitude of approx. 550m, mainly limestone) reach the specialised trade and the menus of the best restaurants worldwide. Impenetrable, dark wine with a bouquet of flint, crushed minerals and some chalk. The texture is rich and opulent, but always supple with a hint of minerality. Campo di Tenaglia is one of the juiciest Cabernet Francs we have ever had in the glass. Beautiful, long final and certainly great Storage potential. SUPERIORE.DE

"Juicy, this red exudes black cherry, black currant, cassis and wild herb aromas and flavors. This has a light chewiness to the texture, with dusty tannins flexing their muscles on the long aftertaste. Shows superb balance and length, despite needing time to come together." Wine Spectator

"Intense ruby red, tending towards violet. Distinctly floral nose of violets and dried rose petals. Notes of wild berries, undergrowth, leather and sealing wax follow. The palate has verve, the tannin is still raw and slightly drying. Persistent, pronounced finish." Falstaff

"The Campo di Tenaglia 2020 is an intoxicating, explosive wine. The soaring Cabernet Franc aromas leave a strong first impression. Deep and layered, with plenty of intensity, the 2020 opens up wonderfully with time in the glass. Strong tannins give it energy all the way to the concentrated finish. This is a promising wine." Vinous

"The Tenuta di Trinoro 2020 Campo di Tenaglia opens with a dark and impenetrable appearance and full-bodied texture. The bouquet is absolutely packed with dark fruits, spices, smoked tobacco and mineral hints of granite or iron ore. The wine feels very young and has the texture and firmness to withstand a long ageing period." Wine Advocate
