Guado al Tasso Matarocchio 2013 is a full-bodied Cabernet Franc from the Bolgheri sub-region of Tuscany. The Antinori family-owned Tenuta Guado al Tasso is located in on the coast of upper Maremma in the prestigious Bolgheri DOC. This region of the Tuscan Coast is a terroir in which Cabernet Franc does particularly well, as exemplified by the superb aromatics and effortless balance on display in this magnum bottling of the 2013. "The 2013 Matarocchio, 100% Cabernet Franc, is superb. Deep, sumptuous and enveloping in all of its dimensions, the 2013 captures all the best qualities of the Tuscan coast. Dark-fleshed fruit, smoke, mocha, plum, espresso and new French oak infuse this deep, fleshy wine. Sweet tannins give the wine added texture, but there is also a good bit of freshness that keeps the wine from being overly heavy. The 100% new French oak is impeccably balanced." Vinous, 2017

Antinori

While technically a wine rather than a winery, Marchesi Antinori's flagship red wine, Supertuscan Tignanello, has become an icon in its own right. Produced from the Tignanello estate, this wine is one of Italy’s most recognized and celebrated fine wines. Tignanello is a blend of mostly Sangiovese wines with lesser parts Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, showcasing the Antinori family's mastery in winemaking.

Situated in the heart of Chianti Classico, in the gently rolling hillsides between the Greve and Pesa river valleys, the Tenuta Tignanello vineyard produces these influential wines. Tignanello was the first Sangiovese to be aged in barriques, the first contemporary red wine blended with untraditional varieties (specifically Cabernet), and one of the first red wines in the Chianti Classico region not to use white grapes. This innovation has made it a modern red wine that stands out among its peers.

The Antinori estate also produces a superb Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon Grappa, a full-bodied Bordeaux-style red called Guado al Tasso, and delicate yet refined white wines from Castello della Sala, adding to its portfolio of iconic wines. The legacy of the Antinori family is evident in every bottle of these exceptional Italian wines.
