Castello di Bolgheri Bolgheri Varvàra 2021
Blend | Italy
The name Varvara was chosen in honor of Baroness Varvara Wrangel, spouse of Count Ugolino della Gherardesca and greatgrandmother of the present-day owner Federico Zileri. The grapes were harvested manually, with saelection on the vineyard and as well as before destemming.
The origins of Bolgheri Castle date back to 1200. Since then, it has been the property of the Counts of Gherardesca family. In the second half of the 1700s, restoration work and improvements were made to the building, and the cellars were built. In 1895, the castle’s facade was modified, with the construction of the tower and merlons as we still see them today.
