"In 2012, I bought the small vineyard Le Gonnare and began to cultivate it. It represents the excellence of the Bolgheri terroir. The soil is clayey and rich in skeleton, which allows for very gradual ripening, a particularly important aspect for Merlot. The character of the wine is therefore Mediterranean, but balanced." Fabio Motta
Fabio Motta's Bolgheri Superiore is a blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, which first matures in cement barrels and then in smaller oak barrels. The fruit comes from a 1.9 hectare site with rocky clay soils at an altitude of 150 metres. Le Gonnare is initially elegantly restrained, and this elegant restraint corresponds exactly to Fabio's idea of his wines from the coast. As the wine progresses, dark fruit meets spicy tobacco and pencil shavings. This Bolgheri Superiore reflects its grape varieties in a very personal style, with great balance and finesse. As Fabio says very subtly: "I want to create wines that I want to drink." SUPERIORE.DE
"Promising nose of red berries and herbs, spices and eucalyptus; compact structure with silky tannins, the acidity invigorates, elegant and long final on notes of forest fruits and balsamic components." Vinum
"Dark ruby with violet colour. Very expressive on the nose, apricot juice, black cherry, leather, graphite, incense, dark chocolate. Elegant, well-balanced fruit on the palate, with juicy tannins, less tannin in quantity, thus more balanced, on blackberries and mint, beautiful length and structure, earthy finish." Falstaff
"Intense flavours of menthol and dark fruits lead into a dense and dry palate that is both spicy and salty. The acidity is fresh and the purity of the cool black and blue fruits in the background – but for now it remains hidden behind the wood. It needs time, but it will be good." Decanter
"Ripe and expressive, this red offers juicy black cherry, blackcurrant, violet and mineral flavours in an elegant frame. Although it's approachable now, it's fine to leave a bottle in the cellar for a few years. Excellent aftertaste." Wine Spectator
"Shaped by the hot conditions of the vintage, the wine reveals generous fruit and broad volume that wraps thickly across the palate. While the 2022 delivers notable richness and softness, the estate’s restrained handling keeps the profile balanced rather than heavy. This exuberant expression is best enjoyed in the near to medium term, when its sweet fruit character is at its most appealing." Wine Advocate
"This wine shows pure fruit with beautiful flavours of blackcurrant, cocoa, pine needles and pencil shavings. It's focused and agile, with a medium body and compact but superfine tannins that show depth and integrity, with lively acidity coming through. The finish is velvety and long." James Suckling
