Ciril is the first macerated wine from Anđelini Winery, made from grapes sourced from a seventy-year-old family vineyard. A 40-day skin maceration has given the wine its deep amber hue, layered character and pronounced texture. The nose shows dried fruit, tea and spice with a gentle oxidative touch typical of the style. On the palate it is dry, structured, lightly tannic and long-lasting. A wine for the table and for contemplation — an authentic expression of place and hand.

This wine is born in the finest wine-growing area of Buje, Contarini-Brazzania, where low yields per hectare allow the creation of top-quality wines. The vineyards are laid like an amphitheatre, ideally benefiting from the local climate and the mineral white soil. Alcoholic fermentation begins at 25–28 °C for 15–20 days. Malolactic fermentation and maturation follow in small oak barrels for 18 months, allowing the noble aromas of wood and grapes to meld. The wine is then blended and aged for one year in a large cask, after which it rounds off and matures in the bottle for a further 6 months.

Franc Arman Merlot Superior matures partly in large oak barrels and partly in barrique casks. It is characterised by a deep dark-red colour. This atypically styled wine is full and robust, yet still pleasantly drinkable, marked by aromas of ripe cherry and raspberry with a chocolate-and-spice aftertaste. Discreet oak notes intertwine gently with the fruit aromatics, contributing to the wine’s superior overall impression.
