The 2016 Bolgheri Rosso is very fresh and elegant. It is a blend of 50% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc and 15% Syrah. The wine presents prominent mineral notes, along with blue flower and wild berry fruits. The Bolgheri Rosso spends ten months in a combination of barrique, stainless steel and cement. Production is 140,000 bottles.
The 2016 Bolgheri Rosso is fragrant and silky, both of which make it an excellent choice for drinking now and over the next few years. Bright red cherry and floral notes are nicely pushed forward in this very pretty, nuanced entry-level offering from Le Macchiole. The blend is 50% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Syrah, done in a combination of cement and neutral oak.
