Beskrivelse
Guidalberto Tenuta San Guido 2020
Guidalberto Tenuta San Guido 2020 er ligesom Sassicaia, en klassisk “supertoscaner”, dvs en vin af svimlende høj kvalitet, fremstillet udenfor de gængse normer for Italiens klassiske kvalitetsvine.
Vinen fremstår intens rubinrød og duften byder på indtagende nuancer af fuldmoden bærfrugt, mokka, mørkchokolade, tjære og vanille. Smagen er blød og fedmefuld med en silkeagtig, harmonisk finish. Italien har fået en ny klassiker og kultvin; Guidalberto.
Vinen er lavet på 60% Cabernet Sauvignon og 40% Merlot. Den har lagret 12 måneder på fransk og amerikansk eg hvor 30% var nye.
“Violent and profound, Guidalberto describes the 2020 vintage with a very dark profile with notes of sour cherries, black prunes, fondant chocolate, burnt sage and marjoram. Fresh nuances slowly emerge with the passage of time in the glass showing a progressive balminess made up of withered white flowers and mandarin juice fused with the green tones of peppermint. Full bodied, strong and layered in the sip showing grace and character with remarkable distension. Splendid now but better from 2024.”
“A sensational showing in this vintage, the 2020 Guidalberto begins with gorgeous aromas fresh wild berries, spices, fresh cut florals and wild herbs all taking shape in the glass. On the palate this is beautifully textured with gorgeous silky tannins and lovely finesse. It shows remarkable overall balance and focus through the long, sleek finish. Although this needs some time, it appears to be one of the finest young Guidalberto’s I have tasted and it should have a wonderful future ahead.”
“Nice freshness on the palate with plums and berries and citrusy acidity. It’s medium-bodied with fine tannins and a powdery texture. Hints of mushrooms. You can enjoy this young, but it will age nicely, too. Drink or hold.”
“The 2020 Guidalberto is a gorgeous, classy wine. Less opulent than it can be, the 2020 impresses with its energy and drive. Sweet red cherry, plum, mint, rose petal, cedar and pipe tobacco all take shape in this super-attractive, mid-weight offering from Tenuta San Guido. There’s a bit more Merlot in the 2020, but Guidalberto is increasingly made from lots that don’t make it into Sassicaia, which explains the style of recent vintages. This is a terrific showing, especially considering the recent bottling. It’s a fine relative value in Bolgheri’s high-rent district.”
