The Matarocchio Bolgheri Superiore DOC 2016 is an extraordinary red wine produced by the renowned Tenuta Guado al Tasso winery, located in the famous Bolgheri wine region in Tuscany. This wine, made exclusively from Cabernet Franc grapes, represents the excellence and innovation of Italian viticulture. The Matarocchio vineyard, from which it takes its name, is characterized by alluvial and clay soils that give the wine exceptional complexity and depth. The Matarocchio Bolgheri Superiore DOC 2019 is the result of a particularly favorable vintage, with a balanced climate that allowed for perfect ripening of the grapes. The harvest was carried out manually, followed by a rigorous selection of the best bunches. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, followed by aging in French oak barriques for about 18 months. Before being released, the wine further rests in the bottle for several months, ensuring unparalleled balance and refinement.
