Highlights
  • The Wine Composition:
  • Crafted from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and occasionally a small amount of Petit Verdot, the wine aims to capture the complexity and elegance of the Bolgheri terroir
  • Produced since 1990, the grapes come from vineyards on alluvial soils featuring varying compositions, ranging from clay-sand to clay-loam, with rocky deposits known as "scheletro"
  • The Bolgheri Amphitheater:
  • The Guado al Tasso estate is defined by the Bolgheri Amphitheater, a picturesque plain surrounded by rolling hillsides facing the Tyrrhenian Sea
  • The unique geography creates a microclimate with beneficial temperature fluctuations, enhancing the estate's vineyards situated at the foot of the amphitheatre
  • Optimal positioning allows cold nocturnal breezes to cool the vines, resulting in pronounced grape aromas and ensuring perfect berry ripening
  • Te Duce Proficio:
  • Guado al Tasso incorporates the historic family crest of the Antinori family onto the wine capsules
  • A Tribute to the Della Gherardesca Family:
  • Guado al Tasso pays homage to the former estate owners, the Della Gherardesca family, through a label featuring their family crest and the initials DG
