Opinión de los críticos
The 2016 Bolgheri Superiore boasts more precision than the 2015, which was a hot vintage noted for being ripe and soft. This one is much more linear and focused. It is sharper and better, and came out as the winner in this group of samples from Campo alle Comete (tasted over the course of two tasting sessions six months apart). You get a lot of dark fruit intensity here with ripe and balanced flavors that span the aromatic continuum from black fruit to spice. My second tasting of the wine showed how much it has fleshed out and taken on volume over the course of those months. The blend is 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot. Some 14,000 bottles were made. This is the first vintage made entirely by Campo alle Comete's new owners.
This is a rich and flavorful red with plenty of currant and black-licorice aromas with full body, lots of fruit and a long and flavorful finish. Generous and velvety textured. Drink or hold.
Feudi San Gregorio's new estate in Tuscany is already producing fine results. Thanks to the 2016 vintage, this Bolgheri Superiore displays a restrained character with earthiness, camphor ash and minty notes over a base of cassis aroma and flavour. The palate is quite warming but otherwise balanced, with extremely good extraction and firm yet ripe tannins typical of the vintage. It has quite sour acidity and lacks a bit of complexity, but the very good extraction will lead to a good evolution.
