Visual

Deep ruby red.

Palate

The palate is silky and savory, with outstanding balance and dimension that complement the elegant tannic structure perfectly. This wine can be enjoyed immediately, but it also has excellent aging potential for years to come.

Nose

The nose opens with floral notes and aromas of red fruit, and then hints of sweet spices, especially tobacco and licorice root.

Winemaking

Upon arrival in the cellar, the grapes were sorted twice, once before destemming and again immediately after, to guarantee that only perfectly ripe berries reached fermentation vats. Keeping with tradition, each vineyard parcel was subdivided into smaller blocks, and the grapes were harvested separately based on climate trends and individual characteristics of each grape variety, and then fermented separately. Fermentation and maceration took place in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats for 18 - 25 days. After racking operations, the wine was transferred directly into barriques where malolactic fermentation was completed by the end of the year. In February, wine from the best vineyard blocks was selected, and the final blend was made. Guado al Tasso was again transferred into new French oak barriques where it aged until bottling, which took place in May 2024.

The label of the Guado al Tasso bottle was designed with the Della Gherardesca family crest and the initials DG as a tribute to the former estate owners.
