Antinori Guado al Tasso Il Bruciato 2023 is a polished and approachable red from the Bolgheri DOC, one of Tuscany’s most prestigious coastal appellations. Produced at the celebrated Guado al Tasso estate, this wine showcases the region’s ability to produce world-class Bordeaux-style blends that combine Mediterranean warmth with elegance and structure. Il Bruciato was first introduced in 2002 as a modern interpretation of Bolgheri, designed to be accessible while still reflecting the pedigree of the estate’s flagship wine, Guado al Tasso.
The 2023 vintage is crafted primarily from Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by Merlot and Syrah, sourced from vineyards rooted in the mineral-rich alluvial soils of the estate. The year offered favorable growing conditions, with warm, sunlit days and cool maritime breezes that allowed for even ripening and excellent balance of fruit, acidity, and tannins. After fermentation, the wine was matured in oak barrels, enhancing texture and complexity while maintaining freshness and vibrancy.
For more than six centuries, the Antinori family has been synonymous with Italian winemaking excellence, and Il Bruciato reflects their commitment to quality and innovation. With its combination of ripe fruit character, refined structure, and coastal terroir, the 2023 vintage continues to strengthen its reputation as one of Bolgheri’s most reliable and expressive wines.
Antinori Guado al Tasso Bolgheri Rosso Il Bruciato 2023 is a polished and modern Tuscan red blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah.

On the palate, it is medium- to full-bodied, offering juicy dark fruit flavors balanced by velvety tannins and fresh acidity. Subtle oak aging adds depth, with hints of cocoa and cedar leading into a smooth, lingering finish marked by fruit and spice.
