Locone Cabernet Castel del Monte DOC

The Locone Cabernet Castel del Monte DOC is the Apulian powerhouse of Tenuta Bocca di Lupo – the flagship estate of the Antinori family in northern Apulia. The name honors the estate's most beautiful plot: a single, organically certified vineyard on the barren, calcareous soils of the Murgia plateau at an altitude of 300 meters, where 100% Cabernet Sauvignon develops an expressiveness rarely expected in Apulia.

The continental coolness of the plateau ensures slow ripening and natural freshness. After hand-harvesting, the wine matures in French barriques, which impart Mediterranean depth without diminishing the varietal freshness.

A deep purple-red in the glass. The nose opens with aromas of raspberries, black cherries, and wild berries, complemented by rosemary, mint, and a hint of licorice. Soft and fresh on the palate, with fine-grained tannins and a long, herbaceous and spicy finish.

Served at 16–18 °C with 14.5% alcohol by volume. A natural accompaniment to grilled lamb, venison ragout, and aged Canestrato – sun-drenched, fresh, and unmistakably Apulian.
