Comment on noteThe wine
Imagine the gentle Tuscan hills bathed in sunlight, where the sea breeze meets the land. It is from this setting that Emilio Primo is born, a Bolgheri Rosso that whispers the elegance and depth of its terroir. This wine is not just a drink, it is an invitation to journey into the heart of the most authentic Tuscany.
The Bolgheri region, on the Etruscan coast, is a true viticultural gem. The Terre Del Marchesato estate carefully cultivates its vines there, benefiting from a unique climate and soils conducive to the flourishing of international grape varieties. Emilio Primo, 2022 vintage, is the fruit of a harmonious blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah, varieties that express themselves here with remarkable intensity. This marriage gives the wine a complexity and structure that tell the story of this blessed land.
At first glance, its intense and lively ruby red color catches the light, promising radiant youth and long hours of sunshine. On the nose, I perceive generous notes of ripe red fruits, such as cherry and plum, which subtly mingle with spicy touches of black pepper and tobacco, a legacy of its aging. On the palate, the wine reveals a balanced structure, soft and well-integrated tannins, and a refreshing acidity that energizes each sip. Fermentation in steel tanks preserves the purity of the fruit, while the twelve months spent in French oak barriques give it additional aromatic complexity, with nuances of violet, rose and almond, and a light touch of vanilla on the finish. The persistence is long and enveloping, leaving an aftertaste that recalls the fruits perceived on the nose.
This Bolgheri Rosso Emilio Primo is an ideal companion for dishes with character. I particularly recommend it with grilled red meats, a wild boar stew or other game, where its power and tannins can fully express themselves. It will also pair wonderfully with aged cheeses, whose intense flavors will echo the wine's complexity. Picture it on your table, during a dinner with friends or to celebrate a special occasion, it will undoubtedly bring a touch of elegance and conviviality. Let yourself be carried away by this wine that so perfectly embodies the spirit of Tuscany.
