2007 Guado al Tasso Tenuta Belvedere

Guado al Tasso Tenuta Belvedere
With the 2007 vintage Antinori have made an important change to the Guado al Tasso blend, replacing the Syrah component with Cabernet Franc. This has undoubtedly resulted in a more sophisticated wine. The nose is now all about finesse, elegance, suaveness, while the palate delivers charming, fragrant red fruit characters couched in a black chocolate bed; the effect of 16 months in 100% new French & American oak perhaps. Delicious now but will improve over the coming decade till 2017+.

Guado al Tasso Tenuta Belvedere
The 2007 Guado al Tasso screams of Bolgheri. Sweet grilled herbs, mocha, spices and black cherry jam are woven into a generous, expansive frame. There is a wonderful sense of richness and warmth to the fruit that carries through to the round harmonious finish, where clean, minerally notes add freshness. This is simply gorgeous today, but it is young, and the oak needs to integrate. Still, it is impossible not to admire the 2007 Guado al Tasso. In 2007 Guado al Tasso is 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc. The late ripening Cabernet Franc, used in place of Syrah for the first time in 2007, adds a measure of freshness that had often been missing in previous vintages.
