Grattamacco Bolgheri Rosso DOC 2016
Bolgheri Rosso Grattamacco is produced from the rows of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Sangiovese that embellish a vocated hill in the upper Maremma.
The vineyards are located in a natural cradle protected from the winds coming from the nearby sea, with an extension of 14 hectares on soils that alternate between silt, red sand and calcareous marl. The grapes are carefully selected through manual sorting and then transported to the winery. The must is vinified in truncated conical wooden vats, where fermentation takes place spontaneously.
It is only during refinement in barriques for about 10 months that the different varieties, which undergo malolactic fermentation separately, are blended to create what, after about a year and a half, will become Bolgheri Rosso.
Barbera d'Alba DOCG “Vigna Francia” 2020 Conterno Giacomo
Vigna Francia is a Barbera d'Alba produced by the Giacomo Conterno winery, and comes from a real cru, where the Barbera grapes have the opportunity to grow in optimal conditions, bringing healthy, ripe bunches to harvest.
The nose is dominated by a range of fruity touches, which open to a warm and warming sip, where the alcohol level makes itself felt, despite the fresh imprint that envelops the palate.
A prestigious label, which on the table needs equally high level pairings to make the most of it.
If you have friends who are passionate about Barbera from Piedmont, you will really please them with this bottle.
