Matarocchio is considered one of the "highest expressions" of the Bolgheri terroir as reported. Being 100% Cabernet Franc, it is relatively rare (in an area like Bolgheri, which is very popular for Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot blends) and thus takes on a distinctive character. The 3-bottle wooden case format is typical for collectors or as an investment/quality wind shop. Wine/Winery History: Matarocchio is a pure Cabernet Franc wine produced only in the finest vintages, from select vineyards at Tenuta Guado al Tasso in the Bolgheri area. For previous vintages (e.g., 2013), it has been described as "perhaps the most stunning wine… a pure expression of Cabernet Franc" by Wine Advocate.
