Producer Information

Long before it was fashionable, Eugenio Campolmi saw the potential of his homeland, buying his first vineyard in Bolgheri in 1975 baptised “Le Macchiole”. In 1987, he hired famed oenologist Vittorio Fiore as a consultant before the later was joined by Luca d’Attoma for years later. In contrast to his renowned neighbors who focused on Bordeaux blends, Campolmi focused on achieving the purest expression of individual varieties, crafting distinct wines of unprecedented quality. Soon Le Macchiole joined Sassicaia, Ornellaia, and Guado al Tasso as one of the most prestigious estates in Bolgheri. Following Eugenio’s death in 2002, his wife Cinzia Merli, who shares her husband’s passion, took over at the estate. Working with Luca D’Attoma, she has carried on her husband’s legacy by continuing to make great Tuscan wines.
