THE WINE
The Bolgheri Superiore Caccia al Piano is the new jewel of the Tenuta, produced in the most important cru of the estate, the vineyard San Biagio, which perfectly represents the prestigious terroir of Bolgheri. The international style of the Bordeaux blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (70%) and Cabernet Franc (30%) offers a unique tasting experience, condensing the elegant spirit of Bordeaux with the authentic soul of Tuscany. Aged in wood for 2 years. Fruity notes of cherry, berries, and ripe dark fruit, with spicy hints of the Mediterranean scrub. Clean and pure taste, elegant and austere texture, excellent body and refined taste balance. Long aging potential, ideal with local game dishes, red meats, or aged cheeses.
THE ESTATE
The Tenuta Caccia al Piano, formerly the hunting estate of the noble Della Gherardesca family, is immersed in the enchanting territory of Bolgheri. Here, the perfect combination of Mediterranean microclimate and clay/calcareous soils creates the ideal terroir for great wines. Along the picturesque Via Bolgherese, which runs between vineyards and olive trees, winemaker Franco Ziliani has embarked on a new adventure dedicated to producing wines that leave a mark. A story that began in 2003, marked by passionate commitment that transforms, harvest after harvest, into fragrant, full-bodied, and elegant nectars.
THE VINES
In the land that inspired the poet Giosuè Carducci, the care of nature, the wisdom of the gesture, and the love for knowledge mark the time and shape the landscape. The Caccia al Piano 1868 vineyards cover 19.5 hectares and are divided into three crus: Caccia al Piano, Le Grottine, and San Biagio. The exposure of the rows and the characteristics of the natural environment allow for the best expressions of the Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc varieties. The vineyards are cultivated with high-density double guyot training, 9000/10000 vines per hectare, and are managed according to the strict rules of sustainable viticulture. The harvest is entirely manual. The cultivated area is entirely located in the municipality of Castagneto Carducci and covers about 30 hectares, of which 19.5 hectares are dedicated to the vineyard. About 3 hectares are intended for olive trees, which still produce high-quality oil today. The age of the vines ranges from 13 to 18 years. The viticulture employed aims to maintain an excellent, perfect balance, "or almost," between the root system, leaf surface, and number of clusters.
THE COMPANY
It was the late nineties when Guido Berlucchi identified, not far from Bolgheri, the ideal place to give birth to great red wines of international stature. Caccia al Piano was born, an estate of twenty hectares in the heart of the municipality of Castagneto Carducci, one of the most prestigious places in all of Tuscany for winemaking. Ideal climate for vine cultivation: on one side, the continuous sea breezes coming from the Tyrrhenian coast, while on the other, the nearby mountains that shelter the hills from the colder winds, leading to relaxed and elegant wines, respectively based on Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon.
