“Varvàra” Rosso Bolgheri DOC 2021

Castello di Bolgheri | Tuscany
Az. Agr. Castello di Bolgheri | Via Lauretta 7 | IT 57020 Bolgheri

Here comes Varvàra, the convincing "second wine" from the Bolgheri shooting star, named in honour of BaroneVarvàra Wrangel. A wine in the style of the house: a rich, bright ruby colour with a garnet rim, a sophisticated bouquet with a finely pronounced ripe berry nose and beautiful herbal aromas. Warm on the palate, polished, tightly woven and of great elegance and refinement. SUPERIORE.DE

"Dark, almost impenetrable ruby red colour. Multi-layered bouquet with notes of dark chocolate, black pepper, juniper berries, opulent. Also powerful on the palate, with firm tannins, lots of dark fruit, juicy and persistent on the finish." Falstaff

"It shows notes of spiced cherries, blackcurrant leaf, dark chocolate and bark. Medium to full-bodied. It has a weighty core of dark berries with compact and fine tannins that melt into the wine. Focussed and long lasting." James Suckling

"This red wine is all about balance and texture, bringing out the aromas and flavours of blackcurrants, black cherries, liquorice, rosemary and iron. Refined tannins give the wine grip on the finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot." Wine Spectator

"The 2021 Bolgheri Rosso Varvàra shows inky black fruit and rich concentration with a hint of black olive or caper flower. This is another of the historic value wines of Bolgheri that is generous, thickly layered but also accessible. There is a hint of spice on the close that recalls black pepper and chili flake." Wine Advocate

"Pleasant variation on the theme, another wine of great sophistication. Redcurrant on the nose, with a hint of liquorice powder, peony and a touch of orange peel, crisp, salty on the palate, with a fruity and floral return, citrusy finish and beautiful persistence." Luca Gardini
