Il Bruciato Super Tuscan Red

Super Tuscan wines live in a perpetual in-between; they are rule breakers and traditionalists. They use international grape varieties in areas designated for native grapes. They are blends of the old and the new. The 2018 Antinori Guado Tasso Bruciato is one of these wines. Made from a blend of Merlot, Syrah, and Cabernet Sauvignon, the result is dark fruit with spicy complexity, and it’s a real bargain at the price point. The 2018 vintage was full of winter and spring rain, with a dry but cool summer for a longer than average growing season. This gave the grapes time to reach full maturity.

NOTE: This is NOT a Firstleaf Exclusive wine and is not eligible for discounts, member pricing, or member guarantee. Limited Availability.

Due to state registrations, we cannot ship this wine to AL, AZ, CO, GA, IA, ID, IL, IN, KS, KY, MD, ME, MI, MO, NJ, NV, NY,

WINE REGION:

Outline of Tuscany

Tuscany

Italy's rich food and wine heritage is nowhere better demonstrated than historic Tuscany. You can eat and drink like a king here—ideally on a grand terrazza overlooking medieval hillsides strewn with olive and cypress trees. From mouthwatering whites for sipping with antipasti, to sophisticated reds that elevate the meat dishes of Florence (and of course leaving room for sweet Vin Santo with dessert), Tuscany has it all. Sangiovese is the region's star grape, giving us not just Chianti, but also Brunello di Montalcino, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano and the epic Super Tuscan blends.
