Description
What type of wine it is
Mareviglia Toscana Rosato from Campo alle Comete is a still rosé wine produced in Tuscany from a blend of grapes including Syrah, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. This IGT (Indicazione Geografica Tipica) label is distinguished by a dry, fresh and balanced profile, characterised by a long and fruity finish. On the palate, it expresses clear notes of red fruits, accompanied by accents of aromatic herbs and a light balsamic nuance, defining a vibrant and elegant style. The entire production cycle takes place in stainless steel tanks, preserving the aromatic purity of the grapes intact, which are grown in one of the region's most suitable territories.
Where it comes from
The grapes intended for this rosé grow in Tuscany, specifically in the Sughericcio locality of Castagneto Carducci, in the heart of the Bolgheri territory. In this coastal wine-growing area, oenological history has its roots in times preceding the great success of local red wines. The Bolgheri tradition was originally centred on the production of white and rosé wines, so much so that these were the very first types in the area to obtain official recognition in nineteen eighty-four. The wine pays tribute to this specific vocation of the Tuscan territory, using grapes historically established in the region to achieve results of remarkable persistence.
How it is produced
The production process begins with a slightly early harvest, which is essential for preserving the natural freshness and distinct acidity of the bunches. In the cellar, a direct pressing of the grapes is carried out, followed by alcoholic fermentation conducted at a strictly controlled temperature of seventeen degrees Celsius. The entire maturation of the wine takes place inside stainless steel tanks, avoiding the use of wood to keep the clarity of the fruit and the aromatic vibrancy unaltered. Before being released onto the market, the wine concludes its refinement by resting for a minimum period of two or three months directly in the bottle.
History and Curiosities
Before the rise of the famous reds, the Bolgheri tradition was rooted in the production of white and rosé wines. A fascinating historical fact is that the Bolgheri Rosato and Bolgheri Bianco denominations were the very first to obtain official recognition in 1984. This wine pays tribute to this heritage, being expertly crafted from grapes of Bordeaux origin. The winery's evocative identity also comes to life through the minimalist design labels, which combine the territory's illustrious past with contemporary aesthetics.

The name Campo to Comets comes from a historical name of the area where the company is based, that "disappeared" over time.
The first signtature wine from Campo alle Comete is 'Stupore', a Bolgheri DOC, from 2015's harvest. The name was chosen to reflect tradition and experience but also poetry and imagination and to amaze, with memorable flavours and tastes.
