Winemaking The Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon vines are harvested manually in different periods and subsequently vinified separately. Once the grapes arrive at the winery in 15 kg crates, after a careful manual selection on the sorting table, they are destemmed to whole berries, then fermented both in stainless steel and oak vats at a controlled temperature. After one year of maturation in French oak barrels, coming from the certified forests of Allier and Tronçais, both new (50%) and second passage, selected from the best tonnellerie with different degrees of toasting, we proceed to the final blend between the different wines. A further resting phase follows both in large barrels and barriques for about 12 months. After bottling, a further 6 months of refinement in the bottle gives the wine harmony and elegance.

The Story
A careful and meticulous selection of the best grapes from the San Biagio vineyard, the most important cru of the estate and one of the most suitable in the entire Bolgheri area. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, two grape varieties that have found in this small paradise protected by the woods the ideal conditions to express character, structure, elegance and propensity for aging. This is the calling card of Caccia al Piano Bolgheri Superiore DOC, the new excellence created by the Ziliani family.
