The vineyards stretch at an altitude between 100 and 300 metres above sea level, benefiting from excellent \u003cstrong\u003esouth-west exposure\u003c\/strong\u003e. The soil is notable for its varied morphology, with a strong presence of \u003cstrong\u003ecalcareous areas\u003c\/strong\u003e rich in galestro, stones and partially clay components. This specific microclimate encourages consistent ripening and gives the wine its distinctive aromatic definition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduction begins with a rigorous \u003cstrong\u003emanual harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e, with the Merlot picked at the end of August and the Cabernet Sauvignon in September.

This is followed by calibrated maceration for optimal extraction. Once malolactic fermentation in steel is complete, the wine matures for fifteen months in \u003cstrong\u003eFrench oak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e and, to a small extent, American oak.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eGuidalberto 2023\u003c\/strong\u003e from Tenuta San Guido combines Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot in an exceptional Toscana IGT produced in the Bolgheri area.
