Tenuta di Carleone il Guercio Toscana IGT 2022

95 Wine AdvocateWith its elegant white wax capsule, the Tenuta di Carleone 2022 Il Guercio is partially made with feet-stomped Sangiovese (and up to 50% whole-cluster fruit) sourced from the village of Lamole, with its verdant vineyard landscapes and high elevations. This IGT red is balanced and bright with a lean consistency. The fruit tones are presented with good intensity and layered nuance. You get some of the bitter flavors from the skins (from extended maceration), red apple, wild herb, blue flower and crushed stone. Some 15,000 bottles were created.94 VinousDrinking Window 2025 - 2037The 2022 Il Guercio is laced with hints of wild cherry, kirsch, dried flowers, mint and white pepper.

It is undeniably attractive. - By Antonio Galloni on July 2025This is the wine they are most "known" for, it is their calling card amongst collectors. It
