Le Grascete

2011 Bolgheri Cabernet Sauvignon 80% & Cabernet Franc 20%

Azienda Agricola Le Garscete Le Grascete is a remarkable red wine hailing from the esteemed Bolgheri region, crafted with a harmonious blend of eighty percent Cabernet Sauvignon and twenty percent Cabernet Franc. This vintage from 2011 showcases a full-bodied character, delivering a delightful richness on the palate. Its acidity is bright and lively, providing a refreshing counterpoint to the wine's powerful fruit intensity, marked by prominent notes of dark berries and ripe cherries. The tannins are notably structured, offering a firm backbone that enhances the wine's complexity and aging potential. With a perfectly balanced dryness, this wine invites you to savor each sip, making it an excellent choice for pairing with hearty dishes or simply enjoying on its own.

Italy's rich food and wine heritage is nowhere better demonstrated than historic Tuscany. You can eat and drink like a king here—ideally on a grand terrazza overlooking medieval hillsides strewn with olive and cypress trees. From mouthwatering whites for sipping with antipasti, to sophisticated reds that elevate the meat dishes of Florence (and of course leaving room for sweet Vin Santo with dessert), Tuscany has it all. Sangiovese is the region's star grape, giving us not just Chianti, but also Brunello di Montalcino, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano and the epic Super Tuscan blends.
