Tenuta San Guido – Sassicaia

Tenuta San Guido, in Bolgheri on the Tuscan coast, is the home of Sassicaia, the wine that started the Super Tuscan movement, and the only Italian estate with a designation of origin of its own, DOC Bolgheri Sassicaia. The estate belongs to the Incisa della Rocchetta family.

Alongside the vineyards, the estate's olive groves on the Bolgheri hills produce an extra virgin olive oil from local Tuscan varieties: Frantoio, Moraiolo, Leccino and Pendolino.

It is refined and elegant, with notes of artichoke, green tomato, sage and Mediterranean herbs, and a balanced bitterness and spice: made with the same attention to detail as the wine that made the estate famous.
