Castellaccio is a relatively new estate which only produced its first Bolgheri Superiore in 2018. The vineyards are located at Segalare, one of the highest parts of the appellation. The blend here is 95% Cabernet Franc and 5% Pugnitello. After 50 days of maceration, the wine is aged for 12 months in used oak and 12 months in amphora. It's full of leafy eucalyptus, black and green pepper and restrained bramble fruits enhanced by juicy cassis and cedar wood flavours. The attack is full, the tannins dense and creamy, and the acidity refreshing, leading to a high-toned finish.
