Merchant's description
Sassicaia is the flagship of Tenuta San Guido and an icon of Italian wine. The 2015 blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Cabernet Franc is a flamboyant, showy and rich wine with great immediacy in its drinking pleasure. The mouthfeel is exceptionally fine and silken in texture with seamless delivery of sumptuous fruit, spice and Mediterranean herbs.
