Description
Campo alle Comete 2016 Bolgheri Superiore DOC
Campo alle Comete 2016 is a contemporary red with an elegant profile, an expression of the prestigious Bolgheri Superiore DOC. It is born from the union of four international varieties vinified separately, with the aim of enhancing the characteristics of each grape variety and creating a wine that is full-bodied, clean, and harmonious. Maturation in French oak tonneaux and subsequent aging in the bottle contribute to defining a refined character, capable of uniting intensity, balance, and evolutionary potential.
Territory and wine style
The Bolgheri Superiore DOC designation is among the most appreciated on the Tuscan coast for its structured, elegant, and long-lived reds. In this context, Campo alle Comete interprets the territory with a precise style, oriented towards expressive cleanliness and drinkability. The result is an Italian red wine that recalls the richness of the Bolgheri territory while maintaining finesse and measure. The balance between substance and delicacy makes it a bottle suitable for both immediate tasting and a period of further evolution in the cellar.
