Silky yet intensely concentrated, the 2019 Tenuta Guado al Tasso Matarocchio Cabernet Franc layers red and black fruits with notes of cocoa, mint and subtle exotic citrus tones, all wrapped in a refined structure. The palate is deep and powerful but remarkably polished, with precise acidity and long, mineral-tinged length that shows this vintage’s emphasis on finesse over sheer weight.

Matarocchio is Tenuta Guado al Tasso’s rare, single‑vineyard Bolgheri Superiore made from 100% Cabernet Franc in only exceptional vintages; it’s crafted to showcase a pure expression of the estate’s coastal terroir with stony, alluvial soils. The wine is typically mid‑to‑full bodied with vivid herbal/menthol notes, dark berry and spice layers (think cassis, licorice and dark chocolate) and polished, silky tannins that favor long aging and precision rather than overt ripeness.
