Tenuta Guado al Tasso Bolgheri Superiore 2020 (75cl)

Guado al Tasso Bolgheri Superiore 2020 is a red blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and a very small share of Petit Verdot, grown on alluvial soils of clay-sand and clay-silt. The grapes are picked by hand and sorted on a table before pressing. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel, after which the wine goes into new barriques for 18 months before blending. It then spends a further 10 months in bottle. The nose is fine and delicate, balancing fruit and balsamic notes. The palate is linear and elegant, with a pleasant, long finish.
