6 Bottle Case Tenuta San Guido Guidalberto Toscana IGT 2023 Rated 96DM w/ Shipping Included

Decanter Magazine Review
Rated 96
2023 was a very good year for the Cabernets, according to Priscilla Incisa della Rocchetta, who added that a very hot start to August made it more difficult for early-ripening Merlot. As a result, Merlot has been reduced in the blend from 60% to 45%. The rich and glossy red berry, blackberry and black cherry fruit is nicely layered with balsamic herbs, damp earth and lovely mid-palate sapidity, with a creamy undertow which leads to a finish of dark chocolate and bitter herbs. Intense but not overtly concentrated, fresh and poised, there's much to love here - although it will require at least another six months to pull together harmoniously. Drinking Window 2025-2038.
