Tasting notes
This is a special commemorative bottle that celebrates the thirtieth harvest at Grattamacco (1982-2012). The 2012 Bolgheri Superiore Grattamacco is a delicious wine with a touch of Mediterranean herb or rosemary oil that gives the wine sharpness and rigid contours. Grattamacco is Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Sangiovese. The tannins are silky and smooth. This wine should show a slow and steady evolution over the next ten years. Oct 2015, www.robertparker.com

About the producer

Grattamacco’s story begins when Piermario Meletti Cavallari purchased an abandoned vineyard in 1977 and grafted over many of the vines. He produced one of the earliest Super Tuscans in 1982 – a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Sangiovese and a wine which continues to earn acclaim today.
