Guado al Tasso Bolgheri Superiore 1997 is an early and now rare example of the estate’s Super Tuscan excellence. Composed primarily of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot with a touch of Syrah, it reflects the warmth of the vintage with notes of dried cherry, tobacco, leather, and balsamic spice. With nearly three decades of aging, the wine has evolved into a harmonious, velvety expression, offering mature fruit, softened tannins, and a lingering savory finish. A collector’s gem and a piece of Bolgheri history.
Guado al Tasso, owned by the historic Antinori family, is one of the flagship estates of the Bolgheri appellation on Tuscany’s famed coast. Located near the town of Castagneto Carducci, this estate is known for its unique terroir of alluvial soils, cooling sea breezes, and exceptional sun exposure. Since the 1990s, Guado al Tasso has played a defining role in establishing Bolgheri as a premier region for Bordeaux-style blends, combining Antinori’s centuries-old winemaking expertise with the region’s modern, international flair.
