The Bolgheri Rosso "Il Bruciato" by Guado al Tasso Jéroboam 3L is a full-bodied and intense red wine.

Obtained from a blend of Merlot , Cabernet Sauvignon , Cabernet Franc , Petit Verdot and Syrah , it is one of the most famous and noble expressions in the world, always appreciated for its impeccable qualities. Warm and silky tones let emerge hints full of berries, red berries, balsamic herbs and spices.
