Tension defines the 2022 Sassicaia: vivid red and black currant fruit is tightly wrapped in notes of cedar, gravelly earth, Mediterranean herbs and discreet spice, with bright acidity and finely packed tannins giving a long, precise and almost vertical finish. It’s a cooler-feeling wine than the hot year suggests, elegantly weighted at 13.5% and clearly built for slow development rather than early charm.

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.
