A Barolo of high standing, both austere and complex. Deep red garnet in color. Delicately spiced bouquet (notes of eucalyptus, licorice and menthol), mature fruit (liqueur soaked cherries, blackberries and prunes) and hints of violets and medicinal herbs. Powerful on the palate, lightly acidic and fresh. Lasting finish.

Guidalberto 2016 TENUTA SAN GUIDO Toscana 75cl, 14%
ROBERT PARKER (94)
This wine is showing exceptionally well in this classic vintage. The 2016 Guidalberto (Cabernet Sauvignon and a smaller percentage of Merlot) opens to a full and generous bouquet and a beautifully rich and velvety appearance. This edition of Tenuta San Guido’s mid-level wine offers a bigger aromatic profile, more texture and more volume as well. Dark cherry and blackberry segue to spice, tar, leather and sweet fruit at the end. The mouthfeel is elegantly shaped, silky and nuanced. This may well be the best vintage of Guidalberto I have yet to taste—and you can get this wine at a great price too.
JAMES SUCKLING (95)
This is extremely perfumed with aromas of lavender, cinnamon, blackberries, bark and blackcurrants. Full-bodied, extremely refined and polished. Gorgeous fruit and balance. Best ever bottling of this pretty wine from the producers of Sassicaia?

Marchesi di Barolo Barolo della Tradizione DOCG 75cl, 14%
Variety 100% Nebbiolo
Production Zone
The grapes used in the production of this wine come from vineyards located on hills with good slope, characterized by predominantly calcareous clay soil, interspersed with compact layers of sandstone and covered with fine quartz sand and fine silt. The grapes can bring an abundance of trace elements and ensuring a broad and immediate expression of the bouquet.
Cultivation of the Wineyard
The vines are grown with Guyot on hills with good slope.
Vinification
The grapes, freshly picked, arrives in the cellar integrates and is rapidly pressed and gently destalked to extract from the peel and the outer area of the grape only the most noble and aromatic fractions. Fermentation, at a controlled temperature, takes place in thermo-conditioned tanks. Maceration of the skins lasts 8 days, during which the fermenting juice is regularly recycled from the bottom to the top of the tank in order to integrate the tannins softly and extract the color slowly. This procedure is finished throughout all the sugar is converted into alcohol.
Aging
The wine is then racked into cement tanks, that are lined with fiberglass and insulated by cork where it remains for a long time the post-fermentation temperature 22° degrees C. (72° F.). In these cement tanks, Malolactic fermentation begins spontaneously and is completed within 2 months. The wine is aged for 2 years, a part in Slavonian oak barrels and the other part in French oak barrels (30 and 120 hectoliters / 789 and 3.156 U.S. gallons). The fining carries on in bottle, for 12 months, before going into the market. The Barolo Tradizione reaches its maturity after 4 years from the harvest and matures further between 4 and 20 years.
Sensory characteristics
The color is garnet red with ruby hues. The aroma is intense and persistent with clean scents of spices, cinnamon, absinthe, tobacco and rose bush. The taste is full and elegant and with soft tannins. The spicy and the boisè blend perfectly.
