Tenuta San Guido: the icon of Bolgheri
The Tenuta San Guido collection brings together some of the most prestigious labels from Bolgheri, in Tuscany, centered around the legendary Sassicaia and the wines that tell its more accessible and contemporary identity. It is a selection designed for those seeking great Tuscan reds, wines of character, and bottles capable of standing out for their history, elegance, and evolutionary potential.
The Estate is the absolute reference point for those wishing to explore the most famous face of the Bolgheri territory: a unique coastal area, where the mild climate and suited soils favor reds of structure, finesse, and depth. In this collection, you will find different vintages, special formats, and rare versions, from single-bottle Sassicaia to magnums, half bottles, and collector's boxes.
Sassicaia, Guidalberto, and Le Difese
The heart of the selection is the Sassicaia, available in multiple vintages and formats, including the Bolgheri Rosso DOC in classic versions, half bottles, magnums, and in cases of 6 bottles. It is the symbolic wine of Tenuta San Guido, appreciated for its balance, aromatic precision, and extraordinary longevity.
Alongside the Sassicaia, the collection offers Guidalberto IGT Toscana and Le Difese IGT Toscana, two labels ideal for discovering a more immediate and versatile expression of the winery. The Guidalberto, also available in a boxed version, and Le Difese provide an elegant and gastronomic profile, suitable for both everyday consumption and for a connoisseur's cellar.
