Tenuta San Guido

Where Mediterranean breezes meet the pine woods of Bolgheri in Toscana, Tenuta San Guido shaped a modern Italian classic. In the 1940s Mario Incisa della Rocchetta planted Cabernet against local convention, a bold experiment that later earned its own DOC.

Vineyards rise from roughly 60 to 400 metres, over Alberese limestone, gabbro and stony soils that hold heat and sharpen definition. Strict parcel work, hand harvesting and an unhurried élevage in oak are used to build tension, texture and longevity rather than easy volume.

The estate is also a living landscape—woodland, fields and a wildlife refuge—managed as one balanced organism. That wider rhythm is felt in the glass as coastal lift, finely set tannins and a signature Bolgheri clarity that stays luminous over time, vintage after vintage.
