The I Greppi Greppicante 2007 is the third vintage we've carried from the producer, and this may be their best Greppicante yet. We're happy to report that it's still reasonably priced at $21.97 considering price hikes in other wines that come from the Bolgheri region. Names like Sassicaia, Ornellaia, Guado Al Tasso, etc command high prices, and they're well-deserved for such extraordinary wines. But find an ambitious neighboring winery that's not as well known (yet) like Greppi, and you've got yourself a real steal.

The I Greppi Greppicante is arguably the best value coming out of Bolgheri right now. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc.

"I Greppi is an excellent source for wines that deliver tons of Maremma and Bolgheri character at reasonable prices."

Deliver currant, toasty oak and coffee aromas and flavors. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a lot of rich fruit. Very polished and attractive. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best after 2012. 5,265 cases made. –JS
