Description
Production of rosé wines in Bolgheri goes back to ancient times. Starting with Cassiopea, rosé production at Poggio al Tesoro is now extended with Pagus Cerbaia, a small but precious parcel of land with sedimentary soils. Here, the special selection of red grapes, such as Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, are partly fermented in amphorae and partly in oak casks.
