CRITIC REVIEWS
Monica Larner
The 2015 vintage promises good things in Tuscany and this wine offers an informal sneak peek at what we can expect from the celebrated Tenuta San Guido vineyards in Bolgheri. The 2015 Guidalberto opens to a darkly saturated garnet hue. It shows similar concentration and power in terms of its aromatic delivery. Aromas are shapely and round with dark fruit nuances followed by leather, spice and dark tar. The wine is mostly Cabernet Sauvignon with a smaller part Merlot. You feel the lush softness of the second grape as the wine glides smoothly over the palate. It takes on more weight in the glass. This is a solid buy from Bolgheri on the Tuscany Coast.

60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot. Concentrated crimson. Deep, red fruit nose with the merest hint of oak. Supple and yet lots of concentration and length. Serious tannins, but much finer than Le Difese of the same vintage. Elegant and hedonistic at the same time. (WS)
