Bolgheri Rosso from the Le Macchiole estate is its purest essence. A wine you drink with pleasure without giving up the right degree of complexity and structure. The nose shows clear hints of blackberry, cherry and red roses, alongside marked notes of wild herbs. On the palate it is intense with balanced tannins, thanks to at least 10 months in barrique.
Le Macchiole is a winery in the Bolgheri area, in the heart of the Livorno Maremma, and has become one of the reference points for quality Tuscan wine. Its founders Eugenio Campolmi and Cinzia Merli, with their boldness and drive, were pioneers of a kind of winegrowing that over the years has done a great deal for Bolgheri’s reputation, with wines of real personality. The energy of the Le Macchiole cellar has proved a winning choice, holding on to old traditions while changing and innovating continuously, and choosing organic farming and sustainability. These are the principles behind a success you can taste in the complete authenticity and refinement of its wines.
Bolgheri Rosso is the newest arrival at Le Macchiole, and it expresses the great work the Livorno winery has done on the Bolgheri terroir, bringing out its strong personality. The tireless work in vineyards grown on the area’s clay and limestone soils has made the most of every difference in the ground, adapting international grape varieties to the character of the place. This Bolgheri Rosso is a tribute to the land that made its name: soft, juicy and with an extraordinary aromatic range.
