Guado de' Gemoli 2018 Bolgheri Superiore Magnum

Guado de' Gemoli 2018 is a great red from Bolgheri Superiore DOC produced by Chiappini Giovanni Azienda Agricola, offered in Magnum format for those seeking a wine for special occasions, capable of combining structure, elegance, and aging potential. The blend, dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and Cabernet Franc, precisely expresses the style of the Tuscan coast and the Bolgheri territory's vocation for intense, refined, and long-lived reds.

Territory and wine style

The grapes come from the vineyards Le Grottine and Felciaino, planted respectively in 1978 and 1986, in a medium-textured context with alluvial skeleton. This territorial base helps define a wine of character, with good depth and tasting tension. The harvest, carried out between the third decade of September and mid-October, allows for the best capture of the maturation of the different varieties. Vinification in steel with natural yeasts and aging for at least 18 months in French oak barriques complete a classic and refined profile, designed to enhance balance, complexity, and aging capacity.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents with an important color depth, a prelude to a rich and evolving bouquet. Initially, ripe red fruit, vanilla, and spices emerge on the nose, followed over time by finer and more articulated nuances of licorice, tobacco, cedar, and cinnamon. The palate is full, enveloping, and well-structured, supported by a tannic framework that is present yet harmonious. The finish is decisive, soft in the final sensation, and very persistent, with a progression that invites the next sip.

Recommended pairings

This Italian wine pairs naturally with structured and flavorful dishes, such as braised meats, beef fillets, significant roasts, game, and aged cheeses. It is also ideal with Tuscan cuisine preparations rich in succulence, where the tannic component and aromatic depth find the right balance. Thanks to its elegance, it can also satisfactorily accompany a special dinner or a tasting menu dedicated to great reds.
