Exclusive Supertuscans Wine Tour: alla scoperta di Ornellaia e Sassicaia

Bolgheri Territory

The Bolgheri region is a wine zone in the Maremma that runs parallel to the Tuscan coast in the province of Livorno, named after the town of Bolgheri. Unlike many other prestigious vineyard territories throughout Italy, Bolgheri is comparatively flat and low in altitude. Vineyards are wedged in between wooded hillsides and ancient olive groves, and soils are alluvial and rich in minerals, sand, limestone, clay, pebbles, and volcanic rock in the east. The sea is one of the place’s defining characteristics, the sunshine and maritime influence can be found in the intense, red wines.
