Tenuta San Guido, Guidalberto 2022 La Carlina Stunning nose chock-full of mineralsInteresting nose that manages to be both rich and savoury. Heady top notes and balsam flavours on a palate that is so much more Tuscan than bordelais! If someone told me this had some Sangiovese in it, I would not be surprised. Appetising luncheon wine. Quite long and well balanced but at the moment needs aeration. Still quite tight. Jancis Robinson, jancisrobinson. com (16. 5+)
