Vinification of the Scalabrone Bolgheri Rosato DOC by Gaudo al Tasso of Antinori

A bandit nicknamed Scalabrone gave this Rosato his name. This cuvée consists of 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and 20% Syrah, which grow in the vineyards near the Tyrrhenian Sea. The grapes are harvested and vinified separately. The cuvée is only put together after the ageing process.

The Guado al Tasso winery belongs to the Antinori family, one of the first wine producers in Italy to cultivate grape varieties from France in Tuscany, producing the so-called Supertuscans, heralding a new era in Italian viticulture.
