Tenuta San Guido Bolgheri Sassicaia is an absolute excellence, the only wine in Italy to have earned a specific DOC for identification: Bolgheri Sassicaia DOC. This wine with its enveloping, intense and exciting character is a true legend of oenology. It is the best known in the world as it perfectly embodies balance in terms of body and complexity. This Bordeaux-cut red is made from 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Cabernet Franc grapes.
Tasting Notes.: Shimmering ruby coat. Spectacle of odorous sensations that gradually stand out on the nose. Captivates with aromas of crisp red fruit swirling between notes of currant and cassis, cherry and traits of peach, ethereal, fluttering sensations of vetiver and damask rose, licorice, a pulsating blanket of fine and sweet spices, Mediterranean scrub, mentholated tobacco and a mineral thread. Direct, truthful and dynamic mouthfeel, supremely balanced, with three-dimensional silky tannin and freshness zizzing through the palate like a thunderbolt. Roaring persistence, you catch it and feel it like a crowd in a theater applauding the most beautiful of plays.
Pairings: perfect with white and red meats, fish, appetizers, pasta dishes, game, medium-aged cheeses.
