Cuvee Eva Toscana Rosso IGT 2023 - Le Crocine x 3

The Monumental Purity and Coastal Expression of Cabernet Franc

If you are looking for an excellent Tuscan red wine, the Cuvée Eva Toscana Rosso IGT from the Le Crocine winery represents one of the highest expressions of the territory. The 2023 vintage stands out for its extraordinary quality. 

Technical Characteristics of Pure Cabernet Franc

Cuvée Eva is a red wine produced entirely from Cabernet Franc grapes. This stylistic choice maximizes the microclimate of the Tuscan coast and the vineyards nestled near Bolgheri. The 2023 vintage delivered ideal conditions, with a perfect balance between phenolic ripeness and crisp acidity, consolidating the prestige of premium signature Tuscan wines in the international scene.

The Technical Judgment and Reasons for the Winemaker's Choice

The winemaker's recommendation is based on four key factors that define the value of this label and the precision of execution applied in the cellar by the Le Crocine brand:

• Authentic Sensory Profile: Sharp notes of small black fruits, graphite, and balsamic nuances typical of the Mediterranean scrub.
• Dense and Elegant Tannic Texture: On the palate, the wine offers silky tannins, combined with a solid but never heavy structure.
• Freshness and Verticality: The excellent acidity guarantees a dynamic, deep sip and a very long final persistence.
• Great Aging Potential: The analytical parameters of the 2023 harvest ensure an extraordinary evolution in the bottle over the years.

Organoleptic Characteristics of Cuvée Eva 2023

This single-varietal selection expresses the quintessence of the Tyrrhenian coast in the glass, elevating varietal traits to a superior level of clarity through a clean sensory profile of unquestionable quality consistency.

• Alcohol Content and Blend: 14.50% Vol. / 100% Cabernet Franc.
• Visual Examination: Deep and impenetrable ruby red color, embellished by splendid and bright purple reflections when swirled in the glass.
• Olfactory Profile: An ample, deep, and complex bouquet, standing out with aromas of cassis, wild blackberry, dark chocolate, hints of wax, tomato leaf, and black pepper.
• Palate: Sumptuous and enveloping structure with a mouth entry of total cleanliness. The palatal progression reveals dense and silky tannins perfectly integrated, supported by a balsamic freshness that relaxes the finish.

Food Pairings and Service
