Description

93/100 James Suckling
"Aromas of blackberry and blueberry, with hints of wet earth and spices such as cloves. Full body with round, chewy tannins but polished and caressing. A juicy, succulent finish. One of the best ever. Drink or hold." (Oct 2014)

18/20 Jancis Robinson
"Succulent fruit with quite a closed nose compared with the La Difese 2012. Firmer tannins too and a long, dense finish. Quite hearty and warm, but not unbalanced. Delicious, pure, complex." (March 2014)

Winemaker's Notes:
Guidalberto was created by the producer of Sassicaia, Nicoló Incisa della Rocchetta, and winemaker Sebastiano Rosa, his stepson, from newly planted vineyards dedicated to the production of this wine. The wine is conceived differently from Sassicaia but shaped by the same soil and climate.

The Merlot, Sangiovese and 50% of the Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are come from fifteen acres of vines planted in the mid 1990's, the balance of Cabernet Sauvignon fruit is sourced from the same vines that produce fruit for the legendary Sassicaia vineyards.

This beautifully balanced wine is strongly marked by sweet black Merlot fruit character, with impressions of ripe, concentrated berries in the aroma offset by restrained notes of spice, vanilla and cedar. These carry onto the palate, which shows an elegantly supple texture supported by ripe, silky tannins, ending in a long, refined finish.
