Feudi Di San Gregorio Stupore Bolgheri Campo Alle Comete 2015
Maremma, Tuscany, ItalyCampo Alle Comete is a fairly new acquisition into the Feudi Di San Gregorio portfolio, acquired in early 2016. It is nestled at the foot of Castagneto Carducci, in province of Livorno, and marked the winery's expansion into Maremma. The wine is a Bolgheri DOC blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Petit Verdot that were vinified by the former owner and assembled by the new Campo alle Comete team. Big, soft, plush and ripe with blackberry, cassis, worn suede, dark cocoa, and potent currents of anise. There's a medicinal kirsch undercurrent, sides of velvet tannins, and moderate acidity on a textural palate, all of which pulls this wine heavier than the 13.5 degrees declared would suggest. Certainly a worthy contender for big meaty stews. Looking forward to seeing what the team does with this property going forward.Tasted: 04 March 2020Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| BC | $42.00 | 750ml | private wine stores |
