2021 Sassicaia, Tenuta San Guido, Bolgheri, Tuscany

2021 Sassicaia, Tenuta San Guido, Bolgheri, Tuscany

2021 is an exceptional vintage and has already gained a lot of success from critics. Similar in style to 2019, 2016 & 2011, the vintage conditions were almost perfect and grapes were able to achieve perfect ripeness. Sassicaia's vineyards at altitude allow the grapes to achieve great freshness and vibrancy. Bright red berry fruits, red cherries and violet hints combine with liquorice, leather and sweeter clove spice. The tannins are tightly wound and firm and need time to resolve but are supported by a generous fruit core. The wine finishes on the savoury and has an incredibly long length.
