2019 Tenuta San Guido, Bolgheri Sassicaia

Sold only as a full 6-bottle case in its sealed original wooden case (OWC).

Tenuta San Guido is located in the coastal Bolgheri region of Tuscany, where the Incisa della Rocchetta family first established their vineyards in the 1940s after recognizing the area's potential for high-quality viticulture. The wine is made from 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Cabernet Franc, sourced from estate vines planted in gravel-rich, stony soils that resemble the terrain of Bordeaux. In the glass, it reveals notes of blackcurrant, cedar, graphite, and dried herbs, supported by a refined, silky texture and well-integrated tannins. The 2019 growing season provided ideal conditions with a cool spring and warm summer, resulting in a wine defined by its exceptional balance, fresh acidity, and focused fruit concentration. This is a classic, structured vintage that is built for the cellar, though it offers an impressive level of elegance for those choosing to enjoy it now.
