2000 Fattoria Cabanon 'Cuoredivino' La Botte No.18...

The Cuoredivino "La Botte N. 18" Selezione Cabanon 2000 is an exceptional collector's red wine produced by the artisan winery Fattoria Cabanon in Godiasco Salice Terme, located in the heart of the Oltrepò Pavese region in Lombardy, Italy. This specific label represents an exclusive selection from the winery, predominantly crafted from Cabernet Sauvignon blended with a small percentage of Croatina, and was specifically conceived to defy time through a very long evolution. The rare 3-liter Double Magnum format is the ideal vessel for great aging wines because the smaller proportion of oxygen relative to the volume of liquid allows the wine to mature much more slowly than a standard bottle, while also providing a superior thermal barrier against temperature fluctuations. After more than twenty-five years of cellaring, the wine has now reached the peak of its expressive maturity, displaying a fascinating deep garnet red color. On the nose, it expresses deep tertiary notes of forest floor, leather, sweet tobacco, dark spices, plum jam, and licorice, while the palate is velvety, featuring tannins completely smoothed by time and a warm, highly persistent finish. As a 2000 vintage, this oenological archive gem is a bottle that is definitely ready to drink now to celebrate a special occasion. Equivalent to exactly four standard bottles, it easily yields around twenty-five glasses, making it the perfect focal point for large gatherings. When serving, it requires maximum care with the cork, which may be fragile, and benefits from being uncorked an hour in advance to let it oxygenate directly in wide-bowled glasses, without necessarily using a decanter to avoid dissipating its most delicate aromas. The extraordinary evolved structure of this wine demands pairings with dishes of great aromatic intensity and juiciness, such as braised beef, stews, wild boar, or jugged venison, as well as very long-aged hard cheeses like historical Bitto or Castelmagno, though it remains a superb meditation wine to be savored on its own at the end of a meal."} }{
