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

Winery | The Campo alle Comete winery is 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 in the vine growth and 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, 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. |
