“Guidalberto” Toscana IGT 2021
Since Guidalberto has been vinified from its own grapes, most of which also grow in the Sassicaia DOC monopoly position, San Guido's "second wine" has grown beyond itself. Spicy, earthy bouquet with hints of tobacco, clove and lavender, dense and juicy on the palate with fresh red and black berry fruit. The tannins are well balanced and the finish is complex with a majestic elegance that will become even more refined with years of ageing in the bottle. SUPERIORE.DE

"Sassicaia really was our house wine back then," says Priscilla Incisa della Rocchetta, daughter of the president of San Guido, Marquis Nicolò Incisa della Rocchetta. "It was more of a wine experiment that was only tested within the family and among friends, until we went on the market for the first time with the 1968 vintage. Today, this wine is all about elegance and balance. We like this style, which is not so much about the body. Sassicaia is a good representative of what we want to convey as a style."

The intense ruby Sassicaia is one of the best-known Italian red wines along with Barolo, Brunello di Montalcino and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. Pressed in the Tenuta San Guido in Castagneto Carducci, the drop, which is clouded by myths, has gained a high degree of recognition beyond national borders. The wine, produced exclusively from Cabernet under the name Castiglioncello, was initially intended for private consumption only. In the early 1970s it was marketed under the name Sassicaia for the first time in the 1968 vintage as a representative of a newly developed dynamic wine concept. It was the revolutionary selection of the Cabernet varieties, originally considered extravagant, the favourable soil and the initially exotic and innovative methods of vinification and maturation that brought this fascinating wine its growing international esteem. Today it is known all over the world that the brilliant producers have created Sassicaia, one of the undoubtedly most important representatives of Italian viticulture.
Founded by the visionary Mario Incisa della Rocchetta, the winery is now managed by his descendants, the Nicolò Incisa della Rocchetta family, according to the philosophy of its predecessors. The vineyards of Tenuta San Guido are not only in the top position of Castiglioncello, but also on the slopes of the Quercione and Aia Nuova hills. The most famous wine of the house thrives in its own subzone called Bolgheri Sassicaia. For a long time, the plant was only classified as Vino da Tavola because French grape varieties were initially not allowed to be used in cultivation zones reserved for DOC wines. It was not until 1994 that Bolgheri DOC finally allowed a Bordeaux-style wine to be produced, and shortly afterwards this wine was even granted its own Sassicaia DOC within Bolgheri.
Throughout its history, Sassicaia has been imitated by other producers. It turned out, however, that this exceptional wine, which takes its name from the many stones in the vineyard (ital. „Sassi“) cannot be imitated. The Kreszenz, considered a classic among Tuscan wines, is perfect in form and surprises lovers of fine wines every year anew. It is regularly awarded top ratings by renowned wine critics. Among the highly rated creations of this exceptional company are the showpiece and the two IGT wines Guidalberto and Le Difese. SUPERIORE.DE
"The Sassicaia is perhaps the most famous Italian wine, which has earned fame all over the world beyond national borders. A wine and an enterprise that are rooted in their land, but certainly also a dream, an idea and intuition that have a formative influence on history.“Gambero Rosso
