The estate’s 2004 Bolgheri Rosso (50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 30% Sangiovese) is another delicious effort from this vintage. It offers enticing aromatics along with plenty of clean, focused fruit supported by a lively mineral note, with excellent length as well as balance. It is best enjoyed over the next few years. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2010. Grattamacco must surely be regarded as one of Bolgheri’s historic properties. The estate’s first vintage was 1978, well before the area became the fashionable spot it is today. The wines are made under the direction of consulting oenologist Maurizio Castelli. Unlike many of its neighbors Grattamacco has always included a portion of Sangiovese in its wines with the goal of maintaining some regional typicity.

The aromas of this plump, round wine include cherry, vanilla, spice and coffee, but there are also some slightly greenish tones. The wine has smooth tannins with good freshness and length.——M.L.(4/1/2008)—— 88
