Campo Montecristo 2022 Serraiola – This is a bold, generous, and sun-drenched red that perfectly captures the spirit of the Tuscan coast. From the forward-thinking Serraiola estate in Suvereto, this is a powerful and modern Super Tuscan. The hot 2022 vintage has packed this wine with ripe, luscious fruit, making it an irresistible and hedonistic treat.

What’s it Like?

This wine is bursting with the aromas of a sun-baked Tuscan summer. Think of a rich perfume of ripe blackberry, dark plum, and black cherry, with a background of sweet spice, licorice, and a hint of black pepper from the Syrah. On the palate, it’s full-bodied, rich, and velvety, with a plush, mouth-coating texture. The tannins are soft and well-integrated, making it incredibly smooth, leading to a long, warm, and spicy finish.

Perfect For

A fantastic barbecue wine, pairing with rich, savory dishes like slow-braised beef short ribs or a hearty wild boar ragù, or for a cold evening when you need a wine that feels like a warm hug.

A Taste of the Tuscan Coast…

Serraiola is located in the special terroir of Suvereto, a coastal area known for producing powerful, ripe, and complex wines. Their choice to blend the plushness of Merlot with the spicy, savory character of Syrah is a perfect match for this sunny climate. This wine is a beautiful expression of that vision, showcasing the rich, hedonistic style that makes this corner of Tuscany so exciting.

Campo Montecristo 2022 Serraiola

The Serraiola winery is now run by the 3rd generation of the family, the two sisters Fiorella and Pamela Lenzi. Fiorella is at the front, looking after the wine and production, she embodies the winery with heart and soul. Pamela pulls the strings in the background and ensures that everything runs smoothly.

They produce wines of good character and often of significant quality. The winery’s wines are solid, well-balanced and of good quality, despite small missteps in the recent past with too much wood in the ageing process. The white wines, as is traditional for this winery, are more original and fresher, while the red wines are more predictable in terms of the grape varieties.

Fiorella Lenzi is one of a kind, a character that people in the wine scene like because she is straightforward, honest and direct, and therefore always polarising – and as a woman, no less. With her passion and patriotic commitment to the region, Fiorella has contributed enormously to the fact that the wines of the Maremma are so well known and developed today, and yet her wines are hardly known, but she as a person is.

The vineyards cover a quarter of the total area in family ownership family property, about 12 hectares. The first vineyards date back to the ‘70s. years, then they were gradually replanted with clones that are more
clones that are better suited to this part of the Maremma.

The majority of the vineyard area, 7 hectares, is planted with red grape varieties, mainly Sangiovese, but also Merlot and Syrah. The remaining 3 hectares cover the white grape varieties, some of which are somewhat experimental: Trebbiano, Malvasia, Chardonnay, Sauvignon, Traminer, Marsanne and Roussane.

Since 1994, DOC Monteregio Massa Marittima, a somewhat newer DOC of Tuscany, which also includes the more northern zone of the Maremma, has been produced.
