The Bolgheri DOC of Tenuta Le Colonne is born in the fascinating territory of the Tuscan coast, an area renowned for its structured and complex wines. This wine is mainly characterized by the typical Bolgheri grape varieties, such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and sometimes Cabernet Franc, which harmoniously blend to create a medley of aromas and flavors.
The aging method involves careful maturation in oak barriques, which gives the wine elegance, soft tannins, and a slightly toasted note that enriches the tasting experience. In the glass, it shows an intense color, while on the nose it opens with scents of ripe red fruits, spicy notes, and balsamic hints.
The palate is enveloping, well balanced, with a pleasant persistence that invites the next sip. Perfect paired with red meats, roasts, and aged cheeses, the Bolgheri DOC of Tenuta Le Colonne passionately tells the authentic character of this prestigious denomination.
