Following the metaphorical approach of the medieval table 'Ars Magna' by Ramon Llull, our Cabernet Franc is represented by 'Magnitudo', as it not only expresses in Latin the meaning of greatness, strength, importance, but also of nobility of spirit. Cultivated in a specific parcel of clay-loam soil, this excellent Bordeaux variety achieves an optimal and very rare grape ripeness.
