Castello di Bolgheri is made with a selection of grapes from our 20-year old vineyards located in the surrounding areas of Bolgheri and facing the Tyrrhenian sea.

Hand picked grapes, that are selected with care during the harvest as well as during the destemming process. The 2019 vintage has been harvested during the whole month of September, starting with the Merlot and Cabernet Franc and following with the Cabernet Sauvignon.
