Esco Presto Rosso is a blend of all the red grapes on the various plots, which arrived at the winery after harvesting on 6 September 2024, slightly early to maintain good acidity in the glass.

The wine ferments in steel with only 3 days of maceration on the skins.

This wine is intended to be a snapshot of Bolgheri as a territory with different grapes from completely different areas.

In the mouth it is surprising with citrus and fresh cherry notes, a slightly green tannin that makes it playful and enjoyable even at slightly cooler temperatures.

We love this completely "sui generis" tale of terroir!

From the producer

Matteo Niccolai Vignaiolo

Matteo Niccolai, Vignaiolo ‘Ostinato’.

Matteo's story begins and now continues in Bolgheri, one of Tuscany's most important wine areas. It is a return to the land and to the roots: the Niccolai family has lived here for many generations. In between, Matteo was a restaurateur and creator of the ‘I Mattaioni’ project together with his friend Stefan.

At a certain point, returning home with a personal project was too strong a call. So it is not a story of speculation or exploitation of the fame that the territory has built up over the years, but rather a contrary thrust: in an area dominated by the presence of large wine entrepreneurs, many times ‘outsiders’ and not historically linked to the territory, it is interesting and beautiful the story of a guy who without many means tries obstinately!

Stubborn is the approach, the need to work in a different way: only small plots of old vines to be recovered (the oldest is dated at the land registry in 1964, the youngest in 1998!), little organic work in the field and spontaneous vinification in the cellar. For wines that offer a completely new and unconventional vision of Bolgheri.
