BOLGHERI SUPERIORE DOC 2021 MAGNUM Dario Di Vaira

BOLGHERI SUPERIORE DOC 2021

.

It is the expression of Bolgheri’s terroir and its potential both in the immediate future and in its ability to give the best of itself in aging.

Each variety of each individual parcel is vinified and matures in barriques separately for about half of the aging period, then after a rigorous tasting the best masses are blended and continue aging to obtain the best expression of the vintage.

The distinctive features are the structure and depth of the sip aimed at elegance and complexity supported by a background freshness of balsamic and mineral notes.
