Features of the red wine “Bolgheri Rosso Superiore” by Grattamacco

This sensational wine of Tuscany shows a dark ruby red colour. Its perfume recalls fruits, accompained by defined balsamic hints. The wood, well integrated between the other scents, gives an elegant smoked sensation to the final. The taste is severe but fresh at the beginning. Then it becomes rich and mineral, where the presence of tannins is balanced by a good sourness.
