Antinori Guado Il Tasso Matarocchio 100% Cabernet Franc
| Vintage: | 2015 |

| Description: | Wine Advocate 96 Points - "The 2015 Matarocchio (all Cabernet Franc) is a gorgeous wine, but it does not reach the stunning heights achieved in the knock-out 2013 vintage. This wine was not produced in 2014, and only 5,000 bottles were made in this vintage. Compared to the 2013 edition, this wine appears to have a slightly smaller aromatic range. This gives it a very focused and direct approach. In other words, this vintage is more vertical than it is horizontal in its delivery. The tannins are a more evident here and more nervous or crunchy. The wine is composed of deep, dark and penetrating fruit, with bitter chocolate and savory tobacco. It also shows a salty mineral note that makes your mouth salivate.". Vinous Media 97 - "The 2015 Matarocchio, 100% Cabernet Franc, offers a breathtaking expression of the textural creaminess and radiance that makes the best wines from Bolgheri so alluring. Spice, truffle, espresso, mocha and raspberry jam give the 2015 a decidedly exotic feel. The explosive energy and aromatic intensity of Franc are on full display. The 2015 is a sumptuous, head-turning wine that will offer thrilling drinking, especially in a few years, when it has shed some of its baby fat." |
