Pulenta Estate Cabernet Sauvignon

Pulenta Estate Cabernet Sauvignon has aromas of green pepper, dried fruits, and delicate notes of tobacco and smoke given by the oak aging. On the palate, its varietal strength is expressed. Its tannins are soft, velvety and sweet, revealing a tireless dedication from the vineyard to the bottle.
