2005 Tenuta Guado al Tasso - Bolgheri Superiore - 3 Bottles (0.75L)

The 2005 Guado al Tasso (Marchesi Antinori) stands out today as one of the most elegant and harmonious expressions in the history of this great Bolgheri Superiore DOC.

In the 2005 vintage, the blend consisted primarily of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah, with a small percentage of Petit Verdot. This combination benefited from the season’s slow, cool ripening process, resulting in a wine that traded the classic, muscular opulence for extraordinary finesse.

The 2005 is currently in the midst of its plateau of maturity. It has moved past its phase of exuberant youth and has entered a period of perfect balance on the palate. It can be opened now to enjoy its tertiary complexity, but if stored in a suitable cellar, it will retain this splendid profile for several more years.
