Le Macchiole Bolgheri Rosso 2023

$4999

Le Macchiole made its name on three of Bolgheri's most coveted single-varietal reds — Paleo (Cabernet Franc), Messorio (Merlot), and Scrio (Syrah). The Bolgheri Rosso is the estate's accessible blend, drawing from the same farming and the same cellar but in a more open, immediate register. Cinzia Merli has carried on her late husband Eugenio Campolmi's vision with characteristic precision. This is the entry into Le Macchiole's world — and a delicious one.

"The 2023 Bolgheri Rosso is a very pretty wine. Crushed flowers, spice and mocha lift a core of red-toned fruit in this gentle, easygoing Rosso that shows the more refined side of Bolgheri. The refreshing style makes the 2023 Rosso a total delight. Drink it over the next handful of years." —Antonio Galloni

"The Le Macchiole 2023 Bolgheri Rosso is a blend of 50% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Syrah that shows a tight and focused personality with notes of wild raspberry bramble and almond. I appreciate the lean and easy-drinking quality of the wine, which favors energy and vitality over a broader frame. Beginning with the 2024 vintage, the estate will be certified organic, marking an important milestone in its ongoing commitment to sustainability. With 150,000 bottles produced, this is a widely available and consistently expressive Bolgheri Rosso." —Monica Larner
