Proprietor Cinzia Merli has done a fabulous job with these new releases. The team, led by winemaker Luca Rettondini and longtime consultant Luca D'Attoma seem to have arrived at true summit of excellence, as readers will amply see when looking at these wines within the context of their respective vintages. More than vintage, though, the themes that define the Macchiole wines today have much more to do with a pretty significant evolution that has been under way for a few years. Specifically, today's wines show a move away from the super-rich style of the past towards an approach that gives more importance to nuance and finesse. The wines are still quite powerful and expressive of their Bolgheri origins, but are also moving into another realm of total class. This is one of the most impressive sets of wines I have ever tasted from Le Macchiole.

Bolgheri and Maremma more broadly are home to a number of showy, world-class estates. In that context, Le Macchiole stands out for its decidedly artisan scale and approach. The estate’s Messorio (Merlot) and Scrio (Syrah) seem to get most of the attention, while Paleo Rosso is sadly often overlooked. Over the last ten years, Paleo Rosso has established itself as one of the great wines of Tuscany and Italy. This vertical going back to 1992 provided an opportunity to check in on a large number of wines. The only vintage missing was 1998, which proprietor Cinzia Merli omitted because she wasn't entirely satisfied with the wine.
