This has a wild and perfumed nose of dried thyme, sage, blackberries, cocoa, graphite and white and green peppercorns. Then dried flowers. Full-bodied with firm, tight and precise tannins. Vibrant. There’s so much character and structure. A new benchmark for this winery. More cabernet franc than in the past. Best yet? 65% cabernet sauvignon, 25% cabernet franc and 10% merlot. Try from 2025.

I've been tracking the increasing percentage of Cabernet Franc in the blend of this iconic Tuscan wine. The 2019 Bolgheri Superiore Guado al Tasso is made with 25% Cabernet Franc, with 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Merlot. That this heat-resistant grape now makes up a quarter of the blend speaks to how vintners are gearing up to counter climate change. These are intelligent choices, and you can count on this wine to maintain that level of extreme elegance and intensity that it is known for (even when Merlot was a bigger part of the blend). Indeed, this is a new and improved Guado al Tasso with focused aromas of pencil shaving, white pepper and crushed stone that frame a rich core of black fruit. A fluttering of dried mint gives lift and power to the bouquet. This is a beautifully linear and powerful red blend.

Smooth and opulent, with black currant, blackberry and plum fruit accented by cedar, vanilla and iron notes. Dense and complex, yet accessible, this is balanced and persistent on the lingering aftertaste. Decant now or wait another year or two. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2024 through 2040.

Antinori - Tenuta Guado al Tasso
An der artenreichen, unberührten Küste der Toskana ist Guado al Tasso einer der Stars der Bolgheri DOC. Mit einer Ausdehnung von vier Kilometern am Tyrrhenischen Meer entlang, liegt die Cantina in der Maremma etwa eine Autostunde südlich des berühmten Städtchens Pisa. Dieses Anwesen ist eines von vielen toskanischen Spitzenerzeugern im Besitz der illustren Familie Antinori, aber auch, seiner Schönheit wegen, der private Sommersitz der Familie. Die über 600 Hektar Grund teilen sich in Weinberge und den einzigartigen Kontrast zwischen Stränden und Waldflächen, die die heimische Flora und Fauna bergen. Von dieser Tenuta kommen wundervolle Weißweine, ein Rosé sowie mehrere mit fünf Sternen versehene Rote. Guado al Tasso tendiert weit mehr in Bordeaux-Richtung als die übrigen Roten des Hauses, aufgrund etwas größerer Barriques und weniger neuer Eiche. Als Flaggschiff dieses Guts bringt der Guado al Tasso die kraftvollen Charakteristika der oberen Maremma zum Vorschein, ausbalanciert durch Eleganz und Finesse. Der Zweitwein Il Bruciato zeugt von demselben Sinn für höchste Qualität und präsentiert sich als zugänglicher, leicht würziger Wein mit langem, delikat-fruchtigem Abgang.
