Better known by the name of its most famous wine, Sassicaia, Tenuta San Guido is located in the Tuscan region of Maremma, and is has its own single-estate DOC appellation (Bolgheri Sassicaia) applied to its flagship label.

Sassicaia, one of the original Super Tuscan wines, is made up of Cabernet Sauvignon with a small amount of Cabernet Franc. Created as an experimental wine in the 1940s by Marchese Mario Incisa della Rocchetta, it is known for its supple texture, elegance and perfume. The grapes that go into it are picked just before they reach full ripeness, which contributes to finesse and fragrance as well as a lower alcohol levels. After two weeks' fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the wine is aged for around 24 months in French oak barrels (around 20 percent of which are new).
