Structure is the calling card of 2013 Sassicaia: pristine blackcurrant and blueberry fruit layered with wild herbs, flowers and subtle spice glide over a framework of firm, very refined tannins. The palate is full-bodied yet poised, with bright acidity giving lift and a long, savory, focused finish that promises superb evolution in bottle. This is a particularly classical, ageworthy Sassicaia, more about precision and tension than sheer opulence.

Sassicaia by Tenuta San Guido is an iconic Bolgheri Sassicaia DOC red, a Bordeaux-style blend of mainly Cabernet Sauvignon with Cabernet Franc grown on gravelly, rocky soils that inspired its name. First released commercially with the 1968 vintage, it helped define the “Super Tuscan” category, offering a refined, ageworthy profile that marries blackcurrant, cedar and mineral notes with elegant tannins and vibrant coastal freshness.
