Cellar for up to 20 years. Decant for up to an hour before serving. In Bolgheri, a small village in gorgeous Tuscany, there are at least 10 vines for every person. Wine-making here began tentatively, but by the time Campo alla Sughera arrived on the scene in 1998, Bolgheri had become a wine-obsessed, DOC-certified region. Campo alla Sughera winery was founded by the entrepreneurial Knauf family, in a sheltered spot between sea and mountain on the Tuscan Coast. It’s an international team at Campo alla Sughera - the Knauf family come from Germany, and they are joined by Italian director Tommaso Alessandri and the famed French oenologist Stéphane Derenoncourt. Arnione is a Bordeaux-inspired blend, with an undeniably Tuscan character. It is an intensely bold, dry and well-structured wine composed of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, with lesser portions of Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot. A nose of black and blue berries greets you from the glass, with a herbal undercurrent of eucalyptus and low-lying scrub. On the palate, you can taste notes of blackcurrant and blueberry, accompanied by a smooth tannic structure. It is a deeply satisfying, thirst-quenching wine, with a long, fruity finish. To taste it at its very best, serve Arnione at room temperature, with a hearty meal such as beef stew or a juicy steak.
