- An intensely aromatic Italian blend with notes of fresh plum layered with sweet roasted cocoa, tobacco, and characteristic Bolgheri balsamic notes. Silky and smooth on the palate with a fresh finish.
Stupore' translates as 'amazement' and is vinified to fully express the distinctive terroir of Bolgheri. The grapes were gently destemmed by a shaking motion, so that the whole berries reached the sorting table for careful selection. The best fruit was transferred to either concrete vats or stainless steel tanks, where fermentation took place with selected yeasts under temperature controlled conditions. The wine underwent malolactic conversion in French oak resulting in a softer texture. The wine was matured for nine months in new French tonneaux and second passage, French oak barriques.

Winery | The Campo alle Comete winery is located at the foot of the Castagneto Carducci hill in Bolgheri. The oldest vines are planted around the cellar surrounded by the Mediterranean bushland. The proximity of the sea with its constant refreshing breezes plays an important role for the vine growth and for the maturation of the fruit, where the fresh breezes impart natural balancing acidity to the sun-ripened fruit. The Cabernet Sauvignon vines are trained according to the spur-cordon and Guyot methods. The soil is light in texture and sand-rich, which is warm and airy with good drainage properties. The vineyard is cultivated following organic principles, mostly involving only copper and sulphur preparations. The grapes are hand-harvested and brought immediately to the cellar for vinification. |
