One of the most important wineries in Tuscany's Bolgheri, Eugenio Campolmi and Cinzia Merli created Le Macchiole which became one of the region's very first wineries. At a time when Sangiovese was still king, this was one of the very first to include grapes like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Syrah into their vineyards, providing Bordeaux & Italian lovers alike a new prism through which to see the region and the grapes.

Le Macchiole

With a total of 86 acres under vine throughout the appellation, the family remains steadfast in their plot-by-plot assessments; each is harvested individually, stringently sorted and vinified separately. The Bolgheri Rosso is the flagship of the estate, utilizing all of the red grapes that made them famous. The individual wines, such as the Paleo - 100% Cabernet Franc - are well worth seeking out!!

(100% merlot; 14% alcohol) Deep red. Fresh blackberry and dark cherry aromas are complemented by fresh mint, coffee, smoke and black pepper. Dense but suave, with sweet black cherry and dark chocolate flavors nicely framed by supple tannins and brightened by harmonious acidity. Finishes fresh and focused, with lingering dark cherry and mint notes and an obvious coconut nuance. This is a slightly sweeter, less herbal and less wild style of Messorio than usual, and an excellent example of the higher-alcohol, riper style of merlot typical of the Tuscan coast.
