2016 Marchesi Antinori Tenuta Guado al Tasso Matarocchio Bolgheri Superiore DOC Magnum from Tuscany
One of the most prestigious Italian wines in Magnum format, with exceptional elegance and depth
The 2016 Marchesi Antinori Tenuta Guado al Tasso Matarocchio Bolgheri Superiore DOC Magnum (1.5L) ranks among the very best in the international wine world. Matarocchio is Tenuta Guado al Tasso’s most exclusive wine and is produced only in exceptional vintages. Sourced from a small plot in Bolgheri and made almost entirely from Cabernet Franc, this wine represents the highest level of quality and craftsmanship from Marchesi Antinori.
The legendary 2016 vintage is considered one of the greatest harvests ever in Bolgheri. Perfect weather conditions produced grapes with exceptional aromatic intensity, refined structure, and impressive freshness. The Magnum bottle also allows for a slower and more harmonious aging process, enabling the wine to develop even greater complexity and elegance.
Aroma & taste
The nose is intense and layered, with aromas of cassis, black currants, violets, graphite, cedarwood, cigar box, dark chocolate, Mediterranean herbs, and balsamic vinegar. On the palate, the wine is powerful yet exceptionally refined, with velvety tannins, impressive minerality, and an endless, elegant finish.
Why Magnum?
A 1.5-liter Magnum provides optimal conditions for slow and steady aging. As a result, the wine retains its freshness longer and develops additional complexity. Magnum bottles are also among the most sought-after sizes among collectors and investors.
Serving & foodpairing
