Tenuta Meraviglia & Tenuta Le Colonne — Winery in Donoratico

In Bolgheri, on the Tuscan coast, Tenuta Meraviglia and Tenuta Le Colonne have belonged since 2016 to the Bulgheroni family, who also own Dievole in Chianti Classico. Together the two estates have around 95 hectares of organic vineyards. At Meraviglia the vines grow on hillsides at around 150 metres, looking out to sea; Cabernet Franc plays the leading role. The Bolgheri Superiore Maestro di Cava is made in large, untoasted French oak.

In 2025 the new winery opened, carved into an old quarry, with glass walls and a terrace above the vineyards. Tours start at the Le Colonne enoteca: through the barrel cellar, by car past the vineyards and finally a tasting at a viewpoint. Book at least a day ahead.
