DESCRIPTION
The Bolgheri terroir, the proximity to the sea, the particularly favorable light conditions for Cabernet Franc contribute to the birth of a great wine. In this microclimate the vine, here vinified in purity, enhances its spicy notes and acquires elegance and depth. The name of the wine is a symbol of the love that the winemaker Walter Allegrini brought to this land. It is the most important wine of the estate, entirely obtained from Cabernet Franc grapes and dedicated by Marilisa and Franco to their brother Walter.

CELLAR
When you arrive in Bolgheri and start walking along its most famous streets, such as the much-sung Viale dei Cipressi, the gloomy and suggestive Bolgherese road, you immediately realize that this is not a flat land, but a succession of steps, cliffs, terraces and slopes that gradually and gently descend from the hills to the east towards the sea.
When you arrive in Bolgheri the sun has already made its power, its strength, its energy felt.
When you arrive in Bolgheri you immediately realize that the water is close; and in fact the sea is there behind, beyond the pine forest that runs along the Aurelia and the railway line. Read more
