Comment on noteThe wine
Imagine yourself, in the heart of Tuscany, where the sea breeze caresses the vines. This is where Agapanto 2021 is born, a Bolgheri Rosso that whispers the story of its terroir. This wine is an invitation to a sensory journey, a promise of authenticity.
Podere Conca, nestled in the prestigious Bolgheri appellation, takes advantage of a unique terroir. A mild climate, influenced by the proximity of the sea, forges grapes of exceptional quality. This Bolgheri Rosso DOC is the fruit of a thoughtful blend, where Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc bring structure and freshness, complemented by Ciliegiolo. Fermentation takes place in steel tanks, with careful maceration on the skins, followed by 6 to 12 months of aging in oak barrels.
From the very first glance, its intense ruby red color catches your eye. On the nose, a sophisticated bouquet unfolds, revealing notes of ripe red fruits, such as cherry and blackberry, interwoven with spicy nuances. You will also perceive balsamic touches, an invitation to discovery. On the palate, this wine reveals itself harmonious and enveloping. The tannins, silky and perfectly integrated, carry a beautiful persistence that extends the pleasure of tasting.
This Bolgheri Rosso is an ideal companion for characterful dishes. I recommend it with grilled red meats, slow-cooked game, or aged cheeses. Its complexity and elegance also make it a perfect wine for those moments when you simply want to unwind with a book in hand, or share a deep conversation. Let yourself be carried away by the tradition of Bolgheri and the excellence of Podere Conca.
