About this wine
Peàn is Batzella's classic Bolgheri Rosso DOC, a Cabernet Sauvignon-led blend (roughly 70-80%) with Cabernet Franc, aged about a year in new and used French oak. It offers great body, versatility and gastronomic potential: a dark purple-red wine with blackberry, cassis, birch and mocha aromas, full palate with blackberry cobbler and firm, dusty tannins balanced by good acidity.
A friendly, food-flexible entry into Bolgheri's Cabernet style — big enough to impress but not overly tannic for newcomers.

タム
Tâm
RedCabernet Sauvignon · Cabernet Franc
Tâm is the flagship of Batzella, a Bolgheri Superiore DOC blend of roughly 65% Cabernet Sauvignon and 35% Cabernet Franc from the estate's La Badia vineyard in Castagneto Carducci. Its name means 'passion' or 'heart' in Vietnamese, a nod to co-founder Khanh Nguyen's heritage. The wine shows unusual elegance for a Super Tuscan, reconciling olfactory finesse with power on the palate: dark cherries, plum, cassis, tobacco and licorice notes wrapped in firm but polished tannins, aged in French oak.
メッツォディ
Mezzodì
WhiteVermentino · Viognier
Mezzodì is Batzella's Bolgheri Bianco DOC, a captivating and floral white built mainly from Vermentino (roughly 85%) with a splash of Viognier (roughly 15%). Straw yellow in color, it opens with ripe apricot, white peach, pink grapefruit peel and exotic fruit notes (lychee, longan) evolving toward jasmine and honeysuckle, with hints of vanilla and smoky oak on some vintages. The palate is fresh, full-bodied and lively, closing with a long, slightly mineral finish.

Vox Loci ('voice of the place' in Latin) is Batzella's ambitious mono-varietal Cabernet Franc, bottled as Toscana IGT. Bright ruby with a purple tinge, it opens with tobacco, pepper and thyme over dark berry fruit, with grippy tannins, fine spice and a medium-bodied, structured finish. ABV is typically around 14.5%.
