Donne Fittipaldi
Bolgheri Rosso DOC
Wine Type: Red Wine
Country: Italy
Region: Toscana
Grapes: 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc, 5% Petit Verdot and 5% Malbec
Tasting Notes: Intense ruby red in color. Very fruity with notes of cherry, blackcurrants and discreet underlying spices. Great freshness and harmony. A classic, elegant red with round and silky tannins that results in a pleasant and long-lasting finish.
James Suckling: ”Interesting nose of black berries and currants, colored with notes of savory black spice and graphite. Medium-to full-bodied with a tight bead of blackcurrant fruit, riding tight tannins that are firm but not chewy. Cabernet sauvignon, merlot, cabernet franc and petit Verdot. Drinkable now but best after 2024.”
International Wine Report: “The 2021 Donne Fittipaldi Bolgheri Rosso is a lovely showing in this vintage. Offering aromas of blackberries, dark cherries, spices, floral, and leather with hints of vanilla all taking shape. This is beautifully textured with a full-body that impresses with its polished frame and notable depth, which leads into the long, velvety finish. This offers plenty of appeal early on, but also possesses a drinking window that should span over a decade long.”
