Bolgheri - Sassicaia - Tenuta San Guido Magnum 1985

The domain

The Tenuta San Guido is located on the Tyrrhenian coast, between Livorno and Grosseto, in the beautiful region of Maremma. In the 1940s, the Marquis Mario Incisa della Rochetta settles with his wife in this sumptuous place and realizes his dream of creating a great wine of Bolgheri worthy of the Premiers crus of Bordeaux. The Marquis breaks with the traditional grape varieties (Sangiovese and Nebiolo) by introducing Cabernet-sauvignon. It then gives birth to Sassicaia, a legendary wine that rivals the most prestigious wines in the world. The passion and dedication of the family Antinori does not stop at the world of wine. The Tenuta San Guido also houses the Oasis of Bolgheri. In 1966, it became the first private nature reserve in Italy, a sign of respect for nature and the vine.
