Pierro L.T.C.F 2019
The Pierro L.T.C.F is a red wine blend from Margaret River in Western Australia that combines Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grapes with a little touch of Cabernet Franc (L.T.C.F). All the fruit is hand-picked and once at the winery, whole berries are placed into small open fermenters and plunged by hand three times per day. The wine is left with skins for an average of 20 days before pressing and maturation in 10% new, one, two and three year old French barriques for 11-12 months. Each year the blend changes slightly depending on the vintage and the yield. But every year the aim is to create a wine that is delicious when young, complex but also elegant, smooth and easy drinking. Smooth, silky soft and attractive. An easy drinking medium bodied red wine with elegant flavours of blackberry, cassis mulberry and plum. Best served with red meat dishes such as lamb and duck or alternatively rich pasta dishes with good friends.
