Castello di Bolgheri Varvara 2020

Tuscany, ItalyA BDX blend of 60% cabernet sauvignon, 20% merlot, 17% cabernet franc, and 3% petit verdot from Bolgheri, this wine exudes the richness of dark plum and blackberry mingled with Mediterranean herbs, potpourri, iodine, and earthy, shelly minerality. While warm at 14.5%, as expected from the region, it maintains balance with refreshing acidity and dusty, well-structured tannins, delivering a complex and savoury profile.Tasted: 05 January 2025Tasted by: Prices:
