I Luoghi 2007 Campo al Fico Red (Bolgheri Superiore)
Campo al Fico (“field of figs”) is a rich, ripe 80-20 blend of Cabernets Sauvignon and Franc that opens with a dark, inky color and generous aromas of cherry, blackberry, slate roof and polished stone. There are some light brown shades at the rim of its ruby core, and the wine is soft, sweet and supple on the close.

I Luoghi 2008 Campo al Fico Red (Bolgheri Superiore)
This elegant 80-20 Cabernet Sauvignon-Cabernet Franc blend delivers mature aromas of ripe berry, black cherry and fresh aromas of dried herbs and powdered licorice. The somewhat subdued bouquet leads to a generous mouthfeel that leaves a long-lasting impression.

I Luoghi 2007 Podere Ritorti Red (Bolgheri)
Here’s a sour and astringent expression of Cabernets Sauvignon and Franc, Merlot and Syrah that opens with sharp black fruit and Indian spice. The fruit flavors are jammy and rich on the close.
