      Reviews:

      • Wine Advocate: The Guado al Tasso 2018 Bolgheri Rosso Cont'Ugo is a pure expression of Merlot from the Marchesi Antinori property in Bolgheri on the Tuscan Coast. This vintage is fragrant and bright with aromas that span from bold berry and raspberry to blue flower and dried mint. The aromas are lifted and bright, and to the palate, the wine delivers a graceful medium-bodied approach. This vintage delivers careful and streamlined appeal now in its youth, although it is surely poised to flesh out with time.
      • Falstaff: Fine garnet. Fine nose of ripe forest fruits and strawberries, also raspberries, subtle spice notes in the background, inviting. On the palate polished and full of drive, spreads promptly and resolutely over the tongue, concentrated and powerful, taut through to the finish.

      Producer Information

      Tenuta Guado al Tasso is a Tuscan wine estate located on rolling hills near the coast in the Bolgheri amphitheater. It is a part of the Marchesi Antinori group, and is known for its wines made predominantly from Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, rather than the region's famous Sangiovese grape. There are 300 hectares (750 acres) planted with vines on the property. The proximity to the coast provides the vineyards with plentiful sea breezes which moderate the warm, sunny climate, while at the same time minimizing cloud cover. This means that the grapes can reach full ripeness while retaining acidity, which is essential to make a complex, balanced wine. There is a diverse range of soil types, and a correspondingly diverse range of grape varieties – along with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Syrah, Guado al Tasso also makes a white wine based on Vermentino. Former owners, the della Gherardesca family, began wine production on the estate as early as the second half of the 17th Century. In the 1930s the property came under the control of the Antinori family through marriage.
