2002 was only the second real vintage for Micheletti, a new producer in Bolgheri, but he and his winemaker Fabizio Moltard managed to cope with the trying weather and turn out a professional product. The 2002 Guardione, with good blackberry fruit and minerals, a firm structure, and attractive length, obviously does not have the ripeness and sweetness of the 2001 vintage, but the wine holds its own and that in itself is a good sign.
