Merchant's description
Sassicaia is the flagship of Tenuta San Guido and an icon of Italian wine. 2014 presented many in Bolgheri with challenges yet this release defied all expectations. It is a cool and elegant expression of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc with subtle aromatic definition and fineness of texture. The perfect counterpoint to some of the subsequent blockbuster vintages.
