An Unforgettable Wine Tasting Experience in Bolgheri
This tour is perfect for visitors want to discover a lesser known, yet incredibly beautiful and picturesque part of Tuscany or for those that appreciate the fine Tuscan wines known as Super Tuscans.
Bolgheri is a beautiful medieval village in the town of Castagneto Carducci, situated along the Etruscan coast. It is famous for its Viale dei Cipressi (Avenue of Cypresses), described so eloquently in the poem by the Giosuè Carducci, the first Italian poet to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. In this avenue there are 2347 cypresses, making the landscape really unique.
Bolgheri is also famous for it’s high quality, sophisticated wines made in the traditional Tuscan way. The most famous wines of this region are Sassicaia, Ornellaia and Tignanello. In particular, Bolgheri became famous worldwide after the 1974, when a 6-year-old Sassicaia won a prize from the international magazine Decanter, beating a wide assortment of Bordeaux.
Exclusive Wines: Bolgheri Rosso and Rosso Superiore
In 1994, the region obtained the DOC regulation for the wines Bolgheri Rosso and Rosso Superiore, the Super Tuscan wines produced in this region. The main ingredients of the wine are the Bordeaux trio (Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot); Syrah and the traditional Tuscan grape, Sangiovese, are also used in the making of Bolgheri wine.
These wines received various worldwide recognitions and prizes for their excellent quality.
Tasting wine admiring the beauty of the Tuscan countryside is probably the most beautiful experience for all the people that love wine.
What is a Super-Tuscan Wine?
Super Tuscan wine is an unofficial categorization used to identify small productions of wines that are made combining local grape varieties with uncommon blends in Tuscany, like Merlot or Cabernet Sauvignon. This combination allows to create wines with excellent tastes. The small production makes these wines really expensive and really difficult to export, so you can taste them only in local wineries, maybe with us.
Bolgheri and its Most Famous Wineries
More than just a wine producer, Bolgheri is a picturesque location. There is a beautiful castle made with red bricks that creates a beautiful contrast of colours with the green olive trees and the cypresses that surround the castle.
Our private day tour of this region includes the visit of the most famous wineries in the area, along with tastings of their exclusive wines.
This exclusive tour is the perfect addition to your Italian holiday, visiting some of the best wineries in Tuscany, in one of its most picturesque areas, Bolgheri.
