Albiòn is the local dialect name for a “cru” at Villa Novare, in the heart of the Amarone terroir, on the side of a high south-east facing hill. This position means that the vines benefit from being exposed to the sun’s rays from early
morning until sunset. The Cabernet Sauvignon vines are
planted close together in such a way as to produce the
minimum quantity required to give ripe bunches rich in
substance. The strength of the grape and the 18 months
cask maturation process make this a meaty and densely
fruity wine, with a texture that is a fine balance between
suppleness and structure. A Cabernet Sauvignon with a strong personality, which has taken its place among the best in the world and has won the most prestigious French award in Bordeaux. Its organoleptic characteristics include dark and sweet notes which mean that it needs to accompany strongly flavoured dishes: meat, game and mature cheese.
