Tenuta San Guido | Tuscany



Everything has already been said and written about Tenuta San Guido and Italy's most famous red wine, Sassicaia. Nevertheless, we take the opportunity for a little review:

A wine with Cabernet Sauvignon as the main grape variety meant a radical departure from the traditional wines of Tuscany and Piedmont, whose typical grape varieties were, for example, Sangiovese or Nebbiolo. No one had ever thought of growing a Bordeaux grape variety in Italy, and it was all the more incredible because the Bolgheri area was not established in wine culture. But besides the fine bouquet of Cabernet, the Marchese's decision to grow this grape variety at Tenuta San Guido was reinforced by the similarity of the Bolgheri landscape to the Graves in Bordeaux. 'Graves' in French means 'pebbles', and similarly the soil of Tenuta San Guido gave its name to Sassicaia, which in Tuscan dialect means 'stony ground'.

Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards require a certain minimum age, so from 1948 until the late 1960s the original wines of the estate were drunk only at the winery. However, each year a few cases were stored in the cellar, and it was noticed that after a few years of storage, the wine improved significantly. As a result, two more Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards were planted, a good 250 meters lower than the original vineyards in Castiglioncello. The Aia Nuova vineyard, on the other hand, was located more in the middle and was also more exposed to the weather. Finally, from all these sites, the first vintage of the main wine was produced in 1968 and was named Sassicaia.

In the 70s, the cellar was moved, fermentation was no longer to take place in wood but in stainless steel, French oak barrels were used for aging. The Marchese's idea of planting Cabernet Sauvignon and aging it in wooden barrels soon spread throughout Italy. Sassicaia was the first Italian wine to be recognized internationally, and is almost universally considered the father of new Italian wines - or in other words, the pioneer of super Tuscans. When the wine icon Sassicaia was born in 1968, Italian Cabernet Sauvignon was also born. - Gerardo [TS07/22]
