Tenuta San Guido

Tenuta San Guido and Sassicaia and are two symbols of Made in Italy in the field of wine, known and respected worldwide. To create a myth, you always need an imporant story behind it.

That of Tenuta San Guido starts in the 20s, when Mario Incisa della Rocchetta, a student at the University of Pisa, had the great dream of making a great wine, in the wake of the great red wines of Bordeaux. After several experiments in the vineyard, then he came to the decision to plant Cabernet, because of the similarity of the soil of Tuscany and the one of Graves, in Bordeaux, whose meaning derives from the stony character of the area. Hence the name Sassicaia. Hence the myth of Tenuta San Guido. The first vintages of Sassicaia were met with some skepticism, given the substantial novelty of a wine oriented towards France, and not towards the vines of the Peninsula. But the efforts and the great foresight of Tenuta San Guido were awarded fully and over the years the reputation of these bottles grew dramatically, until it assumed the character of myth. This applies not only to Sassicaia: Guidalberto and Le Difese are absolutely precious designations and deserve the highest esteem by all true lovers of great wine.

This confirms even more the expertise and the valuable daily work of one of the most important symbols of Italian wine: Tenuta San Guido.
