Tasting Notes: Rute comes from the word “red” in Etruscan. The Etruscans were the most ancient civilization of this territory and the first to cultivate vines in Italy. Merlot is harvested in mid-September, Cabernet Sauvignon the first days of October, then the selected grapes are de-stemmed and pressed very softly, within a few minutes from the harvest, without adding sulfur dioxide to maintain the biodiversity of the yeasts. The Guado al Melo Bolgheri Rosso Rute is rich and jammy, with ripe spicy fruit and a long finish.
