Taste: On the palate, it is dry, structured, and well-balanced, with velvety tannins and good acidity that provides freshness. The finish is long and persistent, with pleasant fruity and spicy notes returning, accompanied by an elegant minerality typical of wines from this area. A good concentration and depth emerge on the palate, making it a rich and enveloping wine.

Food pairings: Ideal with grilled red meats, roast beef, game, and venison dishes. It also pairs well with aged cheeses and rich pasta dishes, such as pappardelle with wild boar ragù or porcini mushroom risotto.
Terroir: Cont'Ugo is born in the hills of Bolgheri, a territory renowned for its varied soils and the Mediterranean climate that favors the slow and optimal ripening of the grapes. The Antinori vineyards benefit from soils rich in skeleton, clay, and sand, giving the wines a distinctive character of elegance and structure.
Vinification: The grapes are harvested by hand and subjected to prolonged maceration to extract the maximum aromatic and structural components. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature, followed by aging in French oak barriques for about 12 months, which rounds out the tannins and enriches the wine's aromatic profile.
Description: The Antinori Cont'Ugo Bolgheri DOC is an emblematic example of the modern expression of Bolgheri wines, combining the power and roundness of Merlot with the elegance and freshness typical of the area. Thanks to careful vinification and attentive wood aging, it presents itself as a wine full of character, capable of evolving and improving further with a few years of aging. Perfect for those seeking a structured yet elegant and versatile wine.
