Tenuta San Guido Guidalberto Toscana IGT 2022
Tenuta San Guido Guidalberto Toscana IGT 2022 – A Refined Second Wine from the Sassicaia Estate
Experience the elegance of Guidalberto Toscana IGT 2022, the acclaimed second wine from the legendary Sassicaia estate. Crafted in the heart of Tuscany by Tenuta San Guido, this Super Tuscan red wine balances finesse and approachability, making it a must-have for collectors and casual enthusiasts alike.
A Fruit-Forward Super Tuscan with Age-Worthy Depth
Tasting Notes
On the palate, Guidalberto 2022 is both vibrant and structured. It opens with juicy red berries—think cherry and raspberry—before unfolding into richer, denser layers of blackcurrant, plum, and blackberry. Subtle hints of fresh Mediterranean herbs add a cooling lift, while emerging notes of dark chocolate and cedar provide an earthy complexity. These elements are still evolving and will deepen beautifully over the next 8–10 years.
Blend and Winemaking
Made from 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot, Guidalberto is a softer, more accessible expression compared to its older sibling, Sassicaia. The 2022 vintage showcases the quality of the estate’s terroir while remaining fruit-forward and elegant, ideal for earlier drinking or medium-term cellaring.

Winery | The palate is complex; juicy red berries are layered with darker, more dense black fruits that add richness alongside fresher herbal notes. Just emerging are hints of dark chocolate and cedar, which promise to develop even further with time. With a 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot blend, this wine offers a more approachable and fruit-forward expression of the Tenuta San Guido terroir. However, it will continue to age exceptionally for the next decade. |
