GUADOAL TASSO BRUCIATO 2013 TOSCANA, CAB 20% MERLOT 15% SYRAH Guado a Tasso estate owned by italian super power Antinori 50 miles SW of Florence in Bolgheri by the sea. Bolgheri became known for being the birthplace of Super Tuscans (wines using mainly international varietal like cabernet sauvignon ,merlot, cab franc and syrah )about 50 yrs ago when the benchmark SASSICAIA was first created. Since then the area has been growing immensely producing some great expensive wines( Sassicaia, Ornellaia , Masseto) but also some affordable easy drinking ones like BRUCIATO that encloses softness of the smell of the breeze that touches Bolgheri and its hills is expressed in the glass with a deep ruby red and hints of cherry, blackberry and sweet spices. In the mouth ,is elegant and cozy ,thanks to a delicate softness , also due to the refinement of 12 months in new oak barrels and nice spice and delicate aromas The nose is dominated by intense notes of ripe red berry fruit and complementary aromas of sweet spices and coffee.Ample and
balanced on the palate,the wine shows silky tannins along with a sweet and spicy finish and aftertaste. — 10 years ago

Not very full until about 2 hours after opening, but turned out to be full bodied, fruity and very smooth. Definitely a worthy purchase at $25. — 11 years ago

Once upon a time Isole e Olena's Cepparello was one of three or four benchmarks of Sangiovese in purezza from the Chianti classico area between Florence and Siena. This gracefully aged 1999 explains why: nothing in excess, just pure and elegant Sangiovese, stilistically much closer to Pinot Noir than Cabernet, firm tannins, fresh acidity, ... I would still buy this kind of wine by the case - but too many producer aim at high scores from critics blinded by power and extract... — 12 years ago

Really nice heady cocktail of kirch and cherries on the nose. On the palette, the tannins are in the foreground, but the layered texture is evident. Classic Napa cab with plenty of runway ahead of it. Excellent! — 10 years ago
