  Grattamacco Bolgheri Rosso 2012
 
 
Grattamacco Bolgheri Rosso.gif
 
Ample nose of black berries and sweet spices. Smooth in taste yet animated with a good balance of acidity and alcohol; tannins for a full mid palate, followed by a very composed finish. Can go with all the meal, best with the typical Tuscan cuisine.

60% Cabernet, 20% Cabernet Franc, 10% Merlot and 10% Sangiovese. Fermentation is conducted in open truncated cone shaped vats followed by malolactic and ageing in barriques (new and second passage) for 10 months, with a minimum of 6 months bottle refinement. An ample nose of red and black berry fruit, sweet spice and earthy notes. The palate hints at Tuscan flavours of leather, tar and grilled herbs, finishing rich and smooth


A wine produced from a vineyard of 10 hectares at 100 metres above sea level, where the soil is characterized by calcareous sandstone, marl and calcareous flysch mixed to clay and calcareous clay. The climate is of a temperate Mediterranean type. There are 4500 to 5400 vines per hectare with a yield of about 7 tons of grapes per hectare. Vines are trained to Cordone speronato and Guyot simple.
