Territory and wine style
This wine comes from Bolgheri, a Tuscan territory particularly suited to international varieties, thanks to the proximity of the sea, brightness, and a microclimate that favors complete ripening and balance. The vineyards are located on Via Bolgherese, on deep soils with coarse red sands, rich in skeleton and well-drained, with clay presence at depth. These elements contribute to giving the wine definition, structure, and finesse. The choice of pure Cabernet Franc enhances the spicy and balsamic side of the grape variety, combined with an elegant and contemporary interpretation of the territory.
