About
Thanks to Tuscany’s warm Mediterranean climate, the village of Bolgheri enjoys exceptional grape-growing conditions. Azienda Agrícola Le Macchiole is one of the few estates in Tuscany which produces a wine from 100% Syrah. It is named Scrio which comes from the Tuscan dialect meaning ‘pure heart’. Messorio, on the other hand, is 100% Merlot, and is considered one of the finest monovarietals in Italy, the name means `wheat harvest´ in ancient Tuscan. Le Macchiole’s range also includes the fantastic Bolgheri Rosso, Paleo Rosso (Cabernet Franc) and Paleo Blanco (Chardonnay / Sauvignon Blanc) .
