Aia Vecchia "SOR UGO" Bolgheri Superiore
| Vintage: | 2021 |
|---|---|
| Description: | Mostly Cabernet Sauvignon w/ Merlot, Cabernet Franc & Petit Verdot. When the wine called "Sassicaia" was released in 1968, the phenomenon of the super-Tuscan was born. Sharing a rarefied position in Bolgheri, the Pellegrini family of the Aia Vecchia estate have been grape growers in the area for several generations. Winemaker Notes - "In the glass, the wine shows colors of red garnet accompanied by a bouquet of cherries, menthol and a hint of rosemary. On the palate, the wine is round and rich without being overpowering. It is spicy on the mid-palate and lively on the back-end, with flavors of black current, licorice and coffee, followed by a long-lasting finish that is slightly minty and boasts a juicy mouth-watering sensation. An ideal wine for red meat, game-based dishes and hard cheeses." Fermented and aged in a ix of new and used barriques (225L French oak barrels). |
