Merchant's description

Lodovico Antinori is one of the founders of the celebrated Bolgheri wines of the Maremma recognising the potential of the hills along the Tuscan Coast. Lodovico is the pinnacle of the estate, bearing his name on the bottle, and is a blend of mainly Cabernet Franc with Merlot and small quantities of Petit Verdot. A rich, powerful, opulent wine, it displays dark brooding black fruits, spices, and game. The fruit is ripe but there is a remarkable freshness for a wine so complex, pure and concentrated. Entering its drinking window this wine has a long life ahead but will be a delight right now.
