Founded in 1977, Grattamacco was one of the original wineries in the coastal appellation of Bolgheri. An area mostly devoted to Cabernet and Merlot, their higher elevation vineyards led them to also plant some Sangiovese. Grattamacco wines are known for both their power, elegance and complexity that evolves with time.

 

This wine is one of our more popular Tuscan reds, because it over delivers for the price, and is always a fantastic wine that can lay down for a few years, or be ready to drink in the near term.

Coming on the heels of the scorching hot 2017, this vintage started off with lots of rain in April and May that required preventative measures against fungal disease. Splendid heat and sunshine marked the summer months, but the freshness you taste in this wine is a beautiful characteristic of this cooler growing season. The 2018 Bolgheri Superiore Grattamacco reveals a finely nuanced bouquet with dark fruit, tobacco, smoke and earthy garrigue or underbrush. The wine leans toward full-bodied, but it also feels quite elegant and crisp on the streamlined finish. Monica Larner, Wine Advocate

The 2018 Grattamacco is the most elegant, refined and satisfying wine I have ever tasted from Grattamacco.  There is a level of finesse here that is simple unreal. Bright and translucent, with tons of detail, the 2018 oozes with pedigree. Lavender, spice, mint, tobacco and dried flowers add an attractive upper register. Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media
