Located about 100 kilometres southwest of Florence, Maremma is home to one of Antinori’s most popular estates, Guado al Tasso. The Bolgheri amphitheatre is a plain surrounded by gentle hills, facing the Tyrrhenian Sea. The shape of the area creates a unique mesoclimate, with favourable temperature variations. The 320-hectare estate is known for its soil called scheletro, which ranges in composition from clayey sand to clay loam, with rocky deposits.

Cabernet Sauvignon (65%) and Merlot (20%), with the remainder made up of Syrah, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Fermented in both tank and barrel, followed by eight months of ageing in French barriques and a further four months of bottle ageing.

An intense and complex aromatic profile: currant, blackberry, liquorice and elegant spices, with hints of anise, tobacco and roasted coffee. Silky tannins, remarkable complexity and excellent ageing potential.
