Description and technical sheet
The Guado al Tasso Bolgheri Superiore di Antinori was born from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (62%), Cabernet Franc (18%), Merlot (18%), and Petit Verdot (2%) grapes, grown on the Guado al Tasso estate, in the heart of the Bolgheri DOC, one of the most renowned areas in the world for excellent winemaking. Here, the soils are alluvial - clayey-sandy and clayey-loamy, and the vineyards are located 50 meters above sea level, at the foot of the so-called Bolgheri Amphitheater formed by gentle hills overlooking the sea. The Guado al Tasso Bolgheri Superiore di AntinoriGuado al Tasso Bolgheri Superiore is a prestigious red wine, the true flagship of the Antinori winery: for its production, the vineyards were divided into individual harvest parcels based on the climatic conditions of the vintage, and the grapes were vinified separately. Alcoholic fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks at a temperature of 15°C-20°C. Once blended, the wine rested for about 18 months in new French oak barrels before being marketed.
GUADO AL TASSO BOLGHERI SUPERIORE ANTINORI: TASTING
The Guado al Tasso Bolgheri Superiore by Antinori presents itself in the glass with an intense ruby red color. Broad and complex, on the nose it reveals enveloping aromas of plum and small forest fruits in jam, combined with hints of licorice root, balsamic notes, and sweet spices. The palate is silky and elegant, enhanced by a smooth tannic texture and an irresistible gustatory freshness that lingers in the long finish. It pairs well with aged cheeses and structured dishes based on red meats and game.
