Description

Enzo Boglietti is a family owned vineyard that started wine-making in 1991 on about 2.5 hectares of land, moving on to the actual 21 hectares, for a total of 75.000 bottles per year. Enzo gives a sense of direction and eclectic management of the farm, whilst brother Gianni, who joined him in 1996, manages the vineyards together with the ever-present support of father Renato.

Intense, long and complex. Initial balsamic opening, then black and spirit fruits hints. Floral embroiders. Great balance, even if the wine needs more evolution. Cherry, black cherry, ink, cinnamon, violet, black pepper, blackberries, prunes, bark - amongst the many scents. Fresh and dynamic mouth. Pleasant balance. Pleasantly rough tannin. Intense and persistent with tannin accents.
