Sassicaia 2023 is a Cabernet Sauvignon-based red from the Bolgheri Sassicaia DOC in Tuscany. This release comes from a classic vintage and displays a sophisticated bouquet of blackcurrant, Mediterranean scrub and a touch of lead pencil. The palate is medium to full-bodied, featuring a refined architectural structure and silky tannins that are the hallmark of San Guido. It is a wine of immense poise and longevity, finishing with a persistent, savoury mineral note.
