Château Berliquet 2021
Château Berliquet was founded in 1768, and is one of the oldest estates in Saint Émilion. Berliquet was one of the first Saint Émilion estates to sell their wine under their own name (as early as 1784, when most other wines were just called “Saint Émilion”). In July 2017 Berliquet was acquired by the Wertheimer brothers of the Chanel Group (already the owners of neighbouring vineyard Canon, as well as Rauzan-Ségla in Margaux). The 9 ha vineyard is 70% Merlot. The vines here are old, with an impressive average vine age of about 40 years. The vineyard is one large, single block of vines. The terroir is clay, chalk and limestone soils.
Tenuta San Guido Guidalberto 2022
Tenuta San Guido is named after the saint, Guido della Gherardesca, who lived during the 11th century. It is located on the Tyrrhenian coast, in the Maremma area made famous by Italian Nobel prize winner Giosuè Carducci and it stretches for 13 km from the sea to the hills. The Sassicaia wine, the Razza Dormello-Olgiata thoroughbred stud farm and the Bird Sanctuary Padule di Bolgheri are the three defining aspects of the property. They divide the estate between the Padule on the coast, the horse training grounds on the plain, and the vineyards planted up to 350 meters on the hills. The latter have been given their own DOC, the DOC Bolgheri Sassicaia, the first, and so far, only case in Italy of a DOC contained in one estate.
