Dedicato a Walter

Bolgheri Superiore D.O.C.

Cabernet Franc 100%

This is one of the rare 100% Cabernet Francs from Bolgheri and indeed from Italy, dedicated by Marilisa Allegrini to her brother Walter. It has become the jewel in Poggio al Tesoro’s crown. In Bolgheri’s microclimate and in the stony soils of the Via Bolgherese vineyard, situated in the prestigious area known as Soprastrada, this grape variety – which is generally used to give a touch of elegance to Bordeaux wines – finds an ideal habitat in which to express itself in an absolutely independent and original fashion.

Climate Trend

An excellent vintage distinguished by a long summer with temperatures that were never excessive. During July, a green harvest thinned out 30% of the bunches to balance the surface area of leaves with the optimal amount of grapes for production.
