Bolgheri, a prestigious, small DOC in which Guado al Tasso is located, has been famous for rosé wines since the 1970s: for these, as well as for white wines, it received Denominazione di Origine Controllata status in 1984, later extended to reds in 1994. However, the area is now known and respected mainly for its exceptional reds, the so-called 'Super Tuscans'. 阅读更多

Wine making | The selection of the finest Merlot grapes was made from the over 100 acres (40 hectares) of the variety on the estate. After the hand harvest of the crop and a selection in the cellar, the grapes went into temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks where they fermented and remained in contact with their skins for a period of 20 days. The temperature of the fermentation was handled on the basis of the ripeness level of the grapes: some fermented at somewhat low temperatures to maintain aromatic freshness, others close to 86° Fahrenheit (30° centigrade) to extract body and structuring elements. In this way, different types of Merlot were obtained, each of which then went separately into small oak barrels. |
Aging | The malolactic fermentation took place in barriques (1/3 of which were new) and was completed by the end of the year. After 8 months of ageing in French oak, the finest lots were blended together and went back into barrel for a further four months of ageing. At the end of this period, the wine was then bottled and given a final six months of bottle ageing before commercial release. |
