Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, March 2024

Made with Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, the Tenuta San Guido 2022 Guidalberto gives you a good taste of the same DNA that brings us one of Italy's greatest wines, Sassicaia, but it's offered in a more immediate style...

Wine Spectator, June 2024

This red is elegant, despite its firm structure and dense tannins. Black cherry, black currant, plum, tobacco, iron and rosemary flavors hold court, while all the components show balance. The finish is long, with a salty...

The 2022 San Guido Guidalberto is a proprietary blend originating from Tuscany, Italy. This red wine, produced by San Guido, is a blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. It features an alcohol content of 13.5% and is sealed with a cork closure.

Renowned wine critic James Suckling rated this wine a 94, highlighting its complex aromatic profile. Suckling noted, "Lots of mint with sage and fresh rosemary to the currant and orange character on the nose, as well as some ripe raspberries." He further commented on the wine's texture and structure, mentioning, "The palate is very refined with creamy and crunchy tannins that run the length of the wine." Suckling also pointed out that the wine has a "crunchy and energetic personality" and recommended to "Give it a year or two to come together, but it’s showing brightness for the vintage." According to Suckling, the optimal drinking window for this wine begins after 2027.

Similarly, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate also awarded the wine a score of 94, indicating its high quality. Their review emphasized the blend's deep connection to its prestigious sibling, Sassicaia, stating, "Made with Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, the Tenuta San Guido 2022 Guidalberto gives you a good taste of the same DNA that brings us one of Italy's greatest wines, Sassicaia, but it’s offered in a more immediate style here (thanks to the addition of the Merlot)." The review described the vintage as "warm" and noted its "medium-dark concentration and very plump aromas" reminiscent of "blackberry and blackcurrant sitting out in the sun at your local farmers market." The wine's elegance is conveyed through "fruit freshness and the light oak spice that is discernible here but delivered with grace."

Overall, the 2022 San Guido Guidalberto offers a nuanced and sophisticated tasting experience, with both reviewers praising its aromatic complexity, refined palate, and potential for aging. It stands out as a well-crafted wine that reflects the high standards of its producer, San Guido.
