Guado al Tasso – Antinori Bolgheri Superiore – 2016

Three hundred hectares of vineyards in the Alta Maremma that enjoy an almost unique microclimate producing wines with a distinctly Mediterranean character made of power, elegance and balance.
Each vintage different grapes are used in different percentages of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot with the addition of small percentages of Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Syrah. The aging is in classic Bordeaux style, new barriques for about 14 months.
A combination of aromatic finesse, freshness but also power and complexity.
In short, a unique wine!
