A nose that is luxuriously fruity also has undertones of salt, flint and herbs providing balance. The palate runs wild with fruit but simultaneously offers notes of dark chocolate and a subtle spiciness to keep things lively. Tannins are chalky and resilient, and persistent acidity holds up a long finish.

Grattamacco remains the only producer in Bolgheri to stay loyal to Sangiovese in its flagship wine – a factor that we think enhances its distinctly Italian character amongst the Bordeaux-styled wines of the region. The winery is ‘low tech’ with a simple approach: natural yeasts, gravity feed and fermentation in small open truncated cone-shaped oak vats, resulting in very stylish wines.
