Why we love it

Cabernet Franc is not typically associated with Italy, making Italian Cabernet Franc wines rare, in Italy or outside.

In Italy, the grape is mainly cultivated in Friuli Venezia Giulia, where it is often vinified as a single varietal, and in Tuscany, where it plays a key role in the making of Supertuscan blends. It can also be found in small quantities as far south as Sicily. Known for its distinctive herbaceous nose and bold palate, Cabernet Franc wines tend to be polarizing - either deeply loved or not appreciated. At Italyabroad.com we love them.

This Cabernet Franc comes from manually harvested grapes in the Colli Orientali appellation area of Friuli Venezia Giulia. It shows a complex bouquet with vegetal notes, a medium bodied palate with soft tannins, a hint of chocolate on the finish, and a beautifully balanced acidity, adding elegance to the wine.

A must try for Cabernet Franc enthusiasts or those looking to discover this unique Italian expression.

The artisan who made it

Roberto Scubla is a remarkable figure in the world of Italian wine, known for his unwavering passion, bold vision, and dedication to producing some of the best wines from Friuli Venezia Giulia. His journey into winemaking is nothing short of inspiring. Leaving behind a secure career in banking, Roberto took a courageous leap of faith to pursue his dream: to grow his own vineyards and craft truly exceptional wines.

Today, Scubla Winery is located in the picturesque Colli Orientali del Friuli, a renowned winemaking region in northeastern Italy near the Slovenian border. This area is celebrated for its diverse terroir and ideal microclimate, perfect for both indigenous and international grape varieties. Roberto specializes in cultivating native grapes like Friulano and Verduzzo, preserving the region’s deep-rooted winemaking heritage. At the same time, he masterfully produces acclaimed wines from varietals such as Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Sauvignon Blanc.

Every bottle of Scubla wine is a reflection of Roberto’s meticulous dedication and passion. His wines are known for their elegance, complexity, and authenticity, offering a true expression of the Colli Orientali terroir. From vineyard to cellar, Roberto's hands-on approach and commitment to excellence have earned him a respected place among Italy’s most admired winemakers.
