Description and technical sheet
The Bolgheri Superiore Maestro di Cava di Tenuta Meraviglia is a red wine made from 100% Cabernet Franc grapes grown on volcanic soil rich in rocky formations called riolites of San Vincenzo. The company's vineyards, facing South-West, are only spur-pruned with guyot training system, at an altitude of about 150 meters above sea level. During the red wine vinification, the alcoholic fermentation took place spontaneously in rough cement cone-shaped tanks, at a maximum temperature of 28°C, for a period of 13 days. The aging process lasted for 24 months in large untoasted French oak barrels plus an additional 3 months in the bottle.
BOLGHERI SUPERIORE MAESTRO DI CAVA TENUTA MERAVIGLIA: TASTING NOTES
The Bolgheri Superiore Maestro di Cava di Tenuta Meraviglia reveals itself in the glass with an intense ruby red color. On the nose, it expresses aromas of ripe berries intertwined with hints of moss and gentian, and notes of leather, tobacco, and dark spices. The palate is full-bodied and enveloping, with a smooth tannic texture and a long herbaceous and spicy finish. It pairs well with cheeses and savory meat-based dishes, especially those with red meats or game.
