Antinori's Il Bruciato 2024 is a Bolgheri DOC that embodies the power and elegance of the renowned "Bolgheri amphitheater," produced on the Guado al Tasso estate. This intense ruby red releases a bouquet of blackberry, cassis, black pepper, and sweet spices, with hints of Mediterranean scrub and cocoa. Aged for eight months in barrique, it offers a soft and enveloping palate, with well-integrated tannins and a warm, spicy finish. The balanced and generous 2024 vintage makes Il Bruciato a highly drinkable wine, with a modern character that makes it ideal for pairing with hearty dishes or enjoying on its own.
