Discovering the Sassicaia of Tenuta San Guido

Welcome to the world of Sassicaia, a jewel of Italian viticulture, kept in the heart of Bolgheri. This wine, a symbol of elegance and excellence, is the fruit of the passion and dedication of Tenuta San Guido, a producer who has been able to write important pages in the history of Italian wine.

Tenuta San Guido and the birth of a myth

Tenuta San Guido is not just a name in the world of wine, but a real point of reference. The Incisa della Rocchetta family, with their commitment and vision, gave life to Sassicaia. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, this wine stands out for its elegant structure and complex aromas, which have made it famous internationally.

The terroir of Bolgheri, cradle of Sassicaia

The terroir of Bolgheri is fundamental in defining the unique characteristics of Sassicaia. The climate, diversified soils and geographical position contribute to creating the ideal conditions for the growth of grapes. These factors, combined with the winemaking mastery of Tenuta San Guido, give Sassicaia a distinctive aromatic profile and a well-balanced tannic structure.

The evolution and aging of Sassicaia

The maturation process in French oak barrels is another key aspect that contributes to the greatness of Sassicaia. This phase allows the wine to further develop its complexity and aromas, providing a tasting experience that is enriched as the years pass.

Because Sassicaia is a point of reference for wine enthusiasts

Tenuta San Guido's Sassicaia is not just a wine, but represents an experience that goes beyond the simple act of drinking. It is a journey through Italian history, culture and winemaking tradition, a journey that every wine enthusiast should do at least once in their life.
