Structured, elegant, and expressive.
Forchir’s Cabernet Sauvignon is a masterful interpretation of this classic variety in the unique soils of Friuli. The estate’s vineyards, nestled in Camino al Tagliamento, benefit from the region’s mineral-rich alluvial soils, alpine breezes, and generous sun exposure, producing grapes of depth, concentration, and finesse. Here, Cabernet takes on a distinct identity — bold yet refined, with an elegance that reflects Forchir’s meticulous craftsmanship.
On the nose, it reveals aromas of blackcurrant, cassis, and dark cherry, layered with hints of cocoa, tobacco leaf, and subtle Mediterranean herbs. The palate is medium to full-bodied, with structured tannins, refined acidity, and a lingering, savoury finish. Every sip conveys both power and grace, a balance rarely achieved outside the most attentive vineyards.
For wine lovers in Ireland, this Cabernet Sauvignon offers a premium experience — a red wine that pairs effortlessly with rich dishes, festive meals, or quiet contemplative evenings, bringing a taste of Friuli’s rugged elegance to Irish tables.
Why we love it:
Forchir’s Cabernet Sauvignon stands out for its precision and balance. It embodies the noble character of the grape while expressing the distinct minerality and freshness of Friuli. We love how it delivers both intensity and finesse — a wine that feels luxurious without excess, and versatile enough to elevate any dining occasion in Ireland.
