You will like to know that…
Tenuta San Guido Guidalberto Toscana 2018 is a full and powerful wine, whose aromatic profile encapsulates all the peculiarities of the terroir of origin. On the nose, there are notes of fruit and earth, which combine with those of flowers and Mediterranean scrub against a fresh, mineral background.
To be consumed younger than its "brother" Sassicaia, Guidalberto is an excellent wine to accompany first and second courses and, why not, even chocolate desserts.

Reviews of Tenuta San Guido Guidalberto Toscana 2018
It had an intense colour. It disclosed a very nice smell of white roses. I noticed the 2017 a little astringent.

Almost brown edges. Fine aromas of raisins. Quite light, but was ok for my taste.
A good wine to toast with.
