The top 5 wineries in Bolgheri on the Tuscan Coast

Here, sun-kissed vineyards meet the salty sea breeze, creating the perfect conditions for Italy’s most celebrated wines, including the legendary Super Tuscans. But Bolgheri is more than a wine lover’s paradise, it is the ideal setting for your next high-end escape, where luxury villas for rent offer front-row seats to some of the finest wine experiences in the world.

1. Tenuta Argentiera
 Tenuta Argentiera is a true gem nestled between the Maremma countryside and the Tyrrhenian Sea. It is the closest estate to the coast and simultaneously the highest in altitude in the Bolgheri DOC area, rising 200 meters above sea level. Once home to silver mines (hence the name "Argentiera"), the estate now produces premium red wines in a landscape that balances rugged nature with Mediterranean elegance. A visit here is more than a tasting; it’s a scenic retreat for the senses.

2. Tenuta dell’Ornellaia
 A name that echoes prestige, Ornellaia is the epitome of top-notch Italian winemaking. Founded by Ludovico Antinori, this legendary estate pioneered the introduction of Bordeaux grape varieties, like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot, into the heart of Tuscany, giving birth to one of the most iconic Super Tuscan wines. A visit here is more than a tasting, it is a masterclass in refined living. Take a private guided tour through the rolling vineyards and contemporary art installations, enjoy a curated vertical tasting in the elegant wine library, and end your visit with a gourmet lunch prepared by a private chef, arranged exclusively through your luxury villa rental concierge. This is not just a winery, it is a destination where Tuscan soul meets international sophistication, and where every moment is designed to impress the most discerning of guests.
