Description

An enticing intensity greets me in the glass. The Cab and Melot are very evident on first inspection but as I dig deeper the bright fruits of Sangiovese begin to waft through. This lifts the wine making it very engaging. On the palate it is deep and rounded. Intensity of black fruits is immediately apparent with a great structure. The balance of acidity and tannins are very well handled. I do enjoy this wine young but all the elements suggest this wine has many years to develop. An incredible Grattamacco that is always a joy to taste.

Bolgheri

Bolgheri

A new DOC in the coastal Maremma region, Bolgheri first rose to prominence during the 1970s with the emergence of the so-called Super Tuscan wines like Ornellaia and Sassicaia. Having won universal acclaim and selling for unprecedented prices, the authorities relented and awarded Bolgheri its own DOC. The actions of the Super Tuscans inspired a generation in Italy, even if some of the wines here have lost a little of their lustre since.
