2009 Adéo, Campo alla Sughera, Tuscany, Italy, Bolgheri DOC

Bolgheri is a small but famous wine region, with only 1,200 hectares of vineyards. It is situated just south of the city of Livorno, on the Tuscan coast . For some years there is a new wine star visible : Campo alla Sughera is located right next Ornellaia, partly a neighbour of Sassicaia. Knowing that they have other impressive neighbours like Gaja and Antinori, it is clear that this piece of Tuscany has a great climate for producing great wines . The vineyards are at a short distance from the coast and from the wine village of Bolgheri, from which you can admire the wonderful blue sea. The positive impact of the micro-climate with its cool sea breeze on the development of the grapes needs no further explanation. Everywhere in this wine region the light intensity is very important.

The Knauf family, owner of Campo alla Seghura has only one goal: to deliver excellent wines that reflect the enormous potential of the terroir and deserve the highest quality. The wines vinified here are breathtakingly delicious!

This red wine is made from the varieties Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Both varietals are aged separately in oak barrels for 12 months. The final composition is only decided just before bottling .
