The microclimate is strongly influenced by the vicinity to the sea, with strong thermal currents in particular during Spring and Summer; it is characterized by low humidity, less rain than the average in the area, and a high rate of evaporation and plant transpiration.

This diverse combination of soil-climate conditions allows for the cultivation of quite different grapes, yielding wines with high complexity and concentration, but also extraordinarily elegant and aromatic; so much so that Belguardo was able to establish itself as one of the reference standards of the Maremma.

Made with Cabernet Sauvignon and a small percentage of Cabernet Franc grapes, this powerful and elegant wine is the most important “Cru” of the Estate, a pure expression of the Maremma “terroir”. The resulting wine has a full and seductive body, dark spice flavors, enveloping with a long taste. Food pairing suggestions are aged cold cuts, steaks, mildly spicy foods, middle-aged cheeses.
