This is a WOW. Tenuta San Guido is one of the most famous Italian wineries in the world. It is famous for producing one of the most iconic wines of the World Sassicaia. Located in Bolgheri home to the greatest Super Tuscans in the world. It started with the Marchese Mario Incisa della Rocchetta’s ambition to plant Bordeaux varieties in Tuscany in the 1940s. He loved first growth Bordeaux like Chateau Lafite Rothschild and Chateau Latour. After analyzing the first growth vineyards he believed he could make first growth quality in Bolgheri. He was correct. The fist bottling of Sassicaia was in 1968. The wine was included in the top ten best wines of the last century and the rest is history. The wine sells for around $300 a bottle and is one of the true icons of wine. With the success of Sassicaia, Tenuta San Guido introduced a new wine in 2000, Guidalberto. Made from all estate all estate fruit with the same winemaking skill, vineyard management as Sassicaia, allowing more people to experience the greatness of Sassicaia and Tenuta San Guido.
The wine has been a massive success but has achieved even greater heights with the release of the Tenuta San Guido Guidalberto 2022. The wine received 94pts by five of the leading wine publications including Parker’s WA and Wine Spectator. This a huge achievement! This is a great opportunity to experience what the great Sassicaia is all about in the possibly its finest vintage ever. The wine is Cabernet based with Merlot. Tastes like great Bordeaux or Napa with a Tuscan flare. Experience Sassicaia at a fraction of the price. Save 40% and enjoy!

This red is elegant, despite its firm structure and dense tannins. Black cherry, black currant, plum, tobacco, iron and rosemary flavors hold court, while all the components show balance. The finish is long. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Best from 2025 through 2038
A full-bodied wine of intense red fruit flavor and elegantly supple texture supported by ripe, silky tannins. The Merlot in the blend is expressed in sweet black fruit with overall aromas of ripe, concentrated berries offset by restrained spicy oak notes.
