Bolgheri Rosso Superiore Grattamacco Doc

This Bolgheri Rosso Superiore is the fruit of the Grattamacco estate, located on the top of a hill overlooking the sea between Castagneto Carducci and Bolgheri.

Its production is mainly based on the use of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Sangiovese grapes, which are harvested and selected by hand from the second half of September to the first week of October. Fermentation takes place spontaneously in open wooden vats, with maceration in contact with the skins. Subsequently, the wine ages in first and second passage barriques for 18 months, followed by a period of refinement in the bottle of at least 12 months.

Bolgheri Rosso Superiore has a brilliant ruby ​​red colour. The nose opens with a fine and intense bouquet, characterized by hints of berries and cassis, accompanied by pleasant balsamic and spicy notes. On the palate it is fresh and sapid, with balanced tannins and a complex and aromatic finish.

This wine goes perfectly with game and game and is ideal to combine with braised meats and medium-aged hard cheeses.
