"Guidalberto 2024 is the 25th release of this Cuvee by the estate. A blend of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 48% Merlot it reveals an intense ruby red hue and an aromatic complexity enriched by the subtle vegetal nuances typical of the vintage. The bouquet opens with fresh vegetal notes that, with aeration, broaden into hints of cassis, delicate citrus tones of bergamot, and well-integrated wild berry fruit. On the palate, the wine strikes for its elegance and freshness, with a lively energy that drives the sip and a precise, long finish always under the sign of the finesse that characterizes the vintage. The structure, more restrained than in other years, enhances immediate and gratifying drinkability. Three key elements define Guidalberto 2024: its aromatic complexity; the saline and Mediterranean scrub notes already perceptible on the nose; and a vibrant freshness that, together with perfectly integrated tannins and a clear, sapid fruit expression, accompanies the wine throughout the tasting."
Guidalberto is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot that carries the hallmark elegance and finesse that runs through Sassicaia, the sweet fruited Tuscan character of the Bolgheri area and the enticing aromas that Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot are capable of creating together. Spending twenty months in one-third new oak barrels, this wine is irresistible two years from release yet has a proven track record of ageing well into a decade. The second wine of iconic Sassicaia.
