The estate's flagship wine, Tenuta Belguardo, is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, and is a reference point for Maremma Toscana DOC. Powerful but refined, this wine has garnered important accolades by experts in Italy and abroad.
The 2018 vintage was excellent from both a qualitative and quantitative perspective. Abundant winter precipitation offset the deficits of previous years. Warmer spring temperatures led to early budding, and the summer progressed with the expected large diurnal swings between hot days and cool nights. Harvest started in September when grapes reached phenolic maturity and the resulting wines balance freshness with richness and complexity.
Blend: 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc
