Calling All Super Tuscan Fans!

April 27, 2023

Varvara by Castello di Bolgheri is the best-kept secret in Bolgheri. Wedged between and sharing the same borders with Super Tuscan titans, Sassicaia and Ornellaia is a must-have for Super Tuscan fans.

The hamlet of Bolgheri is a tiny area in Tuscany known as the premier wine-producing region for Super Tuscans.  

Wedged between two Super Tuscan titans, Sassicaia and Ornellaia, Castello di Bolgheri rivals these benchmark producers (which cost $200+ per bottle) at "a very attractive price point." Wine Advocate

Castello di Bogheri Varvara Rosso has some of the finest terroir DNA.  

It is a name to know and a wine to have among your Super Tuscan favorites. 

In addition to Sassicaia and Ornellaia, you can add Castello di Bolgheri to your list of heavyweight producers.  At 1/5 the price of the more recognized Tuscan titans, this under the radar red is a must-have!

 

A classic Bordeaux blend of mostly Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot, Varvara can be enjoyed with a wedge of hard cheese.  Or even better, fresh pasta and your favorite bolognese recipe.  

 

Enjoy!
