2024 Targeto Toscana Rosso from Donna Olimpia 1898 is a modern and charming Tuscan red wine from the area around Bolgheri. The wine is made from the classic international grape varieties Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc. The result is a juicy and harmonious red wine with dark berries, ripe cherries, spices, and soft tannins – a wonderful introduction to the style of Donna Olimpia and the sunny Tuscan coast.
Targeto Toscana Rosso is produced by Donna Olimpia 1898, which is based in the prestigious Bolgheri area on the Tuscan coast. Targeto is created as a more immediate and accessible interpretation of the classic Bolgheri style, where ripe fruit, freshness, and balance are at the center.
The wine is made from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc – grape varieties that have made Bolgheri famous far beyond Italy's borders. Cabernet Sauvignon provides structure and dark fruit, Merlot adds softness and roundness, Cabernet Franc contributes aromatic finesse, while Petit Verdot provides color, spice, and extra depth.
The style is fruit-driven and inviting with a focus on the pure character of the grapes. This makes Targeto a versatile red wine that can be enjoyed on its own as well as serving as an excellent accompaniment to Italian cuisine.
2024 Targeto is an obvious choice for those who enjoy Tuscan red wine with ripe fruit and structure, but who want a wine that is lighter and more immediate than the region's most powerful and oak-influenced top wines.
Donna Olimpia 1898 is located near Bolgheri on the Tuscan Mediterranean coast. The area has become world-famous for red wines based primarily on Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc – grape varieties that thrive exceptionally well in the warm but maritime climate.
Proximity to the Mediterranean is crucial. Sea breezes moderate the temperature and help the grapes retain freshness throughout the ripening period. At the same time, the sunny conditions allow for full ripening and a generous fruit character.
Targeto carries the designation Toscana Rosso IGT and therefore gives the producer the freedom to compose the different grape varieties in the style that best expresses the character of the area. The result is a modern Tuscan red wine with clear references to Bolgheri's famous wine tradition.
Nose: Inviting and fruity with ripe cherries, blackberries, and blackcurrants accompanied by violets, Mediterranean herbs, and fine spicy nuances.
Taste: Juicy and harmonious with red and dark fruit at the center. Merlot provides a soft and rounded texture, while Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot add structure and fine tannins. The freshness keeps the wine lively and provides great balance.
Aftertaste: Pleasant and persistent with ripe berries, spices, and a slightly herbal character. The tannins are well-integrated and make the wine easy to enjoy even while young.
Best served at 16-18°C in a good red wine glass. The wine can advantageously be opened 20-30 minutes before serving, but does not necessarily require decanting. Targeto is created to be charming and accessible while young, where the fresh and juicy fruit is most prominent.
