2018 Tenuta San Guido Guidalberto $330 6pack
The 2018 Guidalberto is dark, sumptuous and quite powerful. Even with the extremes of the punishing growing season, the 2017 comes through beautifully, showing remarkable clarity and precision. Black cherry, plum, lavender and spice notes are pushed forward, but it is the wine's structure that gives energy and a real sense of direction. Time in the glass brings out an attractive red berry and floral character that adds freshness.
POINTS OF DISTINCTION
- A second wine from the producers of Sassicaia, the famous Super Tuscan
- More accessible at an earlier stage, Guidalberto is a blend that includes Merlot, to add roundness and a silky texture.
