Caccia al Piano, Ruit Hora Rosso DOCG, 2023

Caccia al Piano’s historic Bolgheri red wine takes its name from a poem by Giosuè Carducci, as testament to its deep-rooted origins in Castagneto, beloved by the famous 19th-century Italian poet. It is a blend predominantly of Merlot, with varying amounts of Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and Petit Verdot, all grown in the estate cru vineyards. Ruit Hora has won acclaim for magisterially exhibiting firm, full structure and complexity, as well as impressive cellarability, classic to sea-facing Bolgheri, yet at the same time offering nonpareil approachability.
