Tenuta Guado al Tasso is located in the small and prestigious DOC of Bolgheri, on the coast of Alta Maremma, about a hundred kilometers southwest of Florence. This appellation has a relatively short history (established in 1995) but boasts international fame as a new benchmark in the global wine scene.
Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot represent the elegance, complexity, and structure of the Bolgheri terroir. Guado al Tasso has been produced since 1990 from vineyards situated on soil of alluvial origin, from clay-sandy to clay-silty, with the presence of Bolgheri conglomerate (skeletal material).
The Guado al Tasso label features the coat of arms of the Della Gherardesca family with their initials, DG, the former owner of the estate.
Upon arrival at the winery, the grapes were selected at two distinct stages: before and after destemming, to ensure that only perfectly ripe grapes reached the fermentation tanks. As with every harvest, individual vineyard plots were divided into many small picking sections based on the year's climatic trends, distinguishing them by grape characteristics and vinifying them separately. Fermentation and maceration took place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature for 15-20 days. After racking, the wine was transferred directly into barriques, where malolactic fermentation occurred by the end of the year. In February, the best vinified batches were selected and blended.

Degustazione: Guado al Tasso 2023 si presenta di un colore rosso rubino intenso. Al naso mostra grande intensità attraverso sentori di prugna, mora e ribes nero, che si uniscono a sensazioni di tabacco, legno di liquirizia e sul finale leggere note di menta e arancia sanguinella. Al palato colpisce per la trama tannica fitta e avvolgente e per un centro bocca e un finale gustativo di grande profondità e piacevolezza. Un millesimo già godibile adesso e allo stesso tempo con un elevato potenziale di invecchiamento.
