Le Macchiole
Bolgheri Rosso SuperTuscan Blend 2017
This is a very punchy, rich wine, likely a blend of Sangiovese with some bordeaux cépages like Cabernet. Actually works very well with rich food and has enough acidity and balance. Not our prime stuff in style but honestly was really good. — 2 months ago
Merlot, Cab Franc, Cab Sauvignon and sometimes Syrah added to the blend.
Absolutely a favourite wine.
Scrio is Syrah….very tasty.
And Paleo is Cabernet Franc.
All are age worthy and will reward your patience..

Duemani
Toscana IGT Cabernet Franc 2005
This is as great Tuscany can get - 100% Cabernet Franc, with beautiful fruit, very dark appearance, dark cherry, herb and chocolate flavours. Duemani refers to the two hands of Luca d’Attoma, oenologist also known from Tua Rita and Le Macchiole, two other great Tuscany estates. Prices have almost doubled since 2005, but this wine is worth it! — 3 years ago
Fattoria Le Pupille (Elisabetta Geppetti)
Saffredi Maremma Toscana Super Tuscan Blend 2012
I finally had my first taste of this small, often lauded, producer of super Tuscan wines. I liked it, on the darker side it reminded me in style of Le Macchiole. — 10 years ago
Le Macchiole
Toscana IGT SuperTuscan Blend 2003
2003 Le Macchiole IGT Toscana (Bolgheri) - nose of red stone fruits, burnt orange peel and lavender. Palate brings sour cherry, black tea and licorice along with bitter, grippy tannins. A bit austere at first even with considerable bottle age, this wine needs a lot of air in order to show off its elegance. 70% Sangiovese, 20% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc. — 13 years ago
