Made with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, the Guado al Melo 2020 Bolgheri Rosso Rute shows a curious bouquet with resin, toasted chestnut, scorched earth, caper and green olive. That theme of greenness continues to the palate with some fresh thyme and oregano. The wine also reveals blackcurrant and cherry with etched mineral notes or wet stone. Despite being aged in neutral oak on the less for 12 months, you do feel the tannic impact of the fruit. 35,000 bottles were made.
