TASTING NOTES
The Donna Olimpia 1898 Bolgheri Rosso DOC 2023 in Mathusalem format (6 litres), presented in a wooden case, epitomises the pinnacle of Tuscan winemaking elegance and tradition, designed for those seeking an extraordinary experience and wishing to celebrate significant occasions with a wine of the highest calibre. The 2023 vintage, marked by an ideal climate with warm, breezy summers, facilitated perfect grape ripening, endowing the wine with a fresh, complex, and structured aromatic profile. The unique Bolgheri terroir, characterised by sandy and silty soils and the moderating influence of the nearby sea, enhances the attributes of the Bordeaux varietals – Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot – that compose this blend of great personality. Visually, the wine displays an intense, bright ruby red hue. On the nose, it reveals enveloping aromas of ripe red fruits, balsamic notes of myrtle and eucalyptus, alongside delicate spicy and vanilla nuances derived from barrique ageing. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, harmonious, and velvety, with soft, well-integrated tannins, balanced freshness, and a long, satisfying finish. The 6-litre Mathusalem bottle, accompanied by a fine wooden case, is a true collector’s item, ideal for long-term ageing or as the centrepiece of grand events and celebrations. This exceptional format allows for a slower, more harmonious maturation, further enhancing the wine’s complexity and depth. Perfectly paired with red meats, game, roasts, and aged cheeses, the Donna Olimpia 1898 Bolgheri Rosso DOC 2023 Mathusalem in wooden case is the ideal choice for those seeking a prestigious wine that narrates the authentic history and character of Bolgheri in an exclusive and refined presentation.
