Tasting Notes

The 2015 Bolgheri Superiore Grattamacco is big, bold and absolutely stunning. This blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 15% Sangiovese is dark and luscious, with overlapping melodies of tobacco, spice, dark fruit and grilled herb. There is so much depth and power. This vintage is a gem for your cellar, and the wine should award a long aging trajectory for those who have the patience to wait. Some 50,000 bottles were made.

Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, May 2019

A bit monolithic now, this red is packed with sweet, ripe black cherry and plum fruit, matched by dense, unyielding tannins. Everything is in the right proportions, but this needs time to come together. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Sangiovese. Best from 2019 through 2027. 11,000 cases made.
