The tasting |
|
|
Intense ruby red. |
|
| | |
|
A beautiful aromatic intensity blending ripe black fruits, sweet spices, balsamic notes, and an elegant touch of oak. |
|
| | |
|
On the palate, the wine reveals ripe but still slightly young substance, very smooth, supported by mellow tannins and a precise profile combining black fruit and hints of graphite. |

This small, 10-hectare estate is run with a deep respect for tradition, blended with a spirit of curiosity and quiet innovation. The result is a collection of elegant, vibrant wines, marked by freshness and a strong sense of place. Each bottle is a true reflection of Bolgheri’s unique terroir, shaped by Tuscan roots and genuine passion. |

The 2020 Bolgheri Rosso Clarice Red pays tribute to Clarice, the wife of Mario Incisa della Rocchetta, founder of the iconic Tenuta San Guido. Partially aged in barrel without new oak, this Bordeaux-style blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot is a graceful introduction to the estate’s signature style. Ripe and silky, with supple tannins and a well-balanced profile, it delivers notes of dark fruit and graphite, striking an ideal balance between elegance and depth. Rated 90/100 by Parker. |
