Grattamacco is the second oldest Bolgheri estate, founded in 1977. The estate lies on a hilly place by the same name, the name Grattamacco refers to the “macco”, a mineral which was scraped away (“grattato”) during the iron working process carried out by the Etruscans on these hills.
This Bolgheri Rosso is characterized by a ruby red colour. The nose opens with evident hints of marasca and plum, enriched with pleasant mineral notes. On the palate it is fresh, intense and savoury, with balanced tannins.
