Varvàra 2022 DOC Bolgheri
60% Cabernet Sauvignon
28% Merlot
12% Cabernet Franc
Hand-picked, grape selection in the cellar before destemming.
Very delicate vinification through pumping over and delestage.

12 months in 500-liter barrels and 35 Hl oak barrels.
CLIMATE
An exceptional vintage, characterized by a high concentration, but where the harmony was yet maintained.
The hot and dry summer, together with the constant ventilation from the sea, helped the slightly early ripening.
Yields per hectare were low, as well as the wine yields because the grapes had a particularly thick peel.

PRODUCTION AREA
Vineyards are placed on a hill at 70m over the sea level. Oriented to the sea full sun from the morning towards the evening.
