Il Borro

Light salmon pink due to very short skin contact. Fresh and very cosy bouquet of white flowers, peach and dried nectarine. Delicate and crisp on the palate, with a fruity elegance that makes it ideal as an aperitif or to accompany mild Mediterranean fish dishes. SUPERIORE.DE

Medium ruby red colour. A violet note on the nose with delicate hints of vanilla and spices. Powerful, fresh and very precise on the palate with dominant fruit and plenty of energy. A fine spiciness and saltiness on the medium-long finish. Very balanced and delicious. SUPERIORE.DE

Metodo Classico Chiaro di Bolle matures on the lees for 18 months. Bright, pale straw yellow in colour. A Blanc de Noir made from 100% Sangiovese with an elegant verticality of citrus fruit, with a hint of fresh flowers and bread crust that play around the delicate bouquet. Very fine and delicate perlage, crisp and fresh with a very appealing length. Refined and delicate. SUPERIORE.DE

Just like its equally famous neighbour Fattoria Petrolo (with its Boggina A), Il Borro can also convince us with a red wine aged in amphorae. Petruna is a single-varietal Sangiovese that is fermented with 12 months of skin contact in hermetically sealed amphorae. The result is surprising, not in the sense of an "interesting" experimental wine, but because the typical character of Sangiovese is fully expressed in freshness, fruit and energy. The bouquet is dominated by cherry and small red berries, plus some orange zest. Its body is of medium weight, which makes it an excellent food companion. Its fresh acidity and a tangle of fine tannins increase the drinking pleasure enormously. We can say that the experiment was successful in an elegant way. SUPERIORE.DE

The top wine from the winery of the same name presents itself in an exemplary manner and as a kind of reference for many other so-called Super Tuscans in the region. Deep ruby red in colour with light red reflections. Dark fruit, spices, herbs, some leather and a fine tarry note on the nose. The flavours then unfold powerfully and concentrated on the palate, yet it glides velvety with a wonderfully balanced acid-tannin ratio into a rich, well-proportioned and long finish. SUPERIORE.DE

Spumante in a class of its own in the finest organic quality! Bolle di Borro - a new interpretation of Sangiovese. Il Borro has been producing a single-varietal Sangiovese sparkling wine using the Champagne method (Metodo Classico) for a few years now. A fragrant, yeasty nose of small red berries and candied citrus peel. On the palate, bread, brioche, finely chiselled Sangiovese fruit and a wonderfully creamy yet precise, crisp, very long finish. Elegance and finesse in puezza! SUPERIORE.DE
