    Named after the "Seggio" stream, the largest watercourse in the municipality of Castagneto Carducci, this elegant Bordeaux blend epitomises the accessibility and finesse of Bolgheri DOC. The historic watercourse rises in the Etruscan Colline Metallifere near Sassetta and flows through the entire Bolgheri area, its alluvial deposits enriching the characteristic clay soils with valuable pebbles. This harmonious cuvée comes from the privileged vineyards of Le Sondraie and Via Bolgherese. The vines, which are around 19 years old, thrive on well-drained, skeleton-rich soils with a clay layer and a high magnesium and iron content – ideal conditions for the international grape variety assemblage.

    Il Seggio presents itself in a brilliant ruby red colour with a dark core. The bouquet reveals ripe red fruits, blackberries and cassis, accompanied by spicy mocha notes and a hint of tobacco. Medium-bodied on the palate with velvety, enveloping tannins of great softness. The balance between international style and Tuscan character is achieved effortlessly – a Bolgheri red wine of convincing drinking pleasure and elegant expression. SUPERIORE.DE

    "Bright ruby red colour. Ripe aromas of dark berries, cherries, blackcurrants, dark chocolate and coffee on the nose. Well-balanced in the mouth, with soft tannins and a velvety finish." Falstaff

    "The nose sparks with metallic, earthy aromas of top soil, pepper, graphite, gun metal, bergamot and blackberry, while the palate provides balance with berries, stone fruit and an undertone of peach tea. Tannins are big and solemn." Wine Enthusiast

    "Aromas of leaves and bramble fruit with Mediterranean nuances. Full-bodied, it shows velvety tannins that are precise and elegant, with refreshing acidity and a toasted finish." James Suckling

    "The 2023 Bolgheri Rosso Il Seggio offers an appealing mix of ripeness and crunchiness that provides a clear read of this underdog vintage. A blend of 50% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Petit Verdot, it delivers a naturally gastronomic profile with soft tannins and good acidity." Wine Advocate
