2013 Guidalberto, Tenuta San Guido, Tuscany, Italy

Description

This is bigger and spicier on the nose than the 2012 Guidalberto, with a round plumminess from the Merlot element. Lovely balance on the palate with no single element dominating the others, hints of minty Cabernet, plummy Merlot and spicy oak are all kept in check by crisp acidity and some fine, but evident tannins on the finish. This can be drunk now, but would reward a year or so in the cellar.

Critics reviews

Monica Larner 93/100
Beautiful and bold, the 2013 Guidalberto is one of the best editions of this wine ever made. It shows great energy and momentum with dark fruit, spice, tobacco and black truffle that come together with impeccable unity. I love the heft and power that supports this wine at the back. Its tannic structure is firm but velvety and will continue to soften as the wine evolves over the next few years. I would suggest holding onto this bottle for three to four more years before popping the cork.

Tenuta San Guido

Tenuta San Guido's journey to becoming one of the world's most sought-after fine wines is largely owed to the vision and dedication of Mario Incisa della Rocchetta. The estate's origins trace back to his wife's family, who had owned land in Bolgheri since 1800. The name "Sassicaia," meaning "place of many stones," reflects the gravelly soil reminiscent of the Médoc region in France.
