Tenuta San Guido
Sassicaia, 2000

 

Bolgheri Sassicaia DOC

Price on Application

750ml Bottle

Deeply saturated colour. Rich, “aristocratic” nose displays scents of ripe blackberry and plum fruit, with notes of minerals, leather, tar, and smoke. The 2000 does not have the same sense of elegance in the mouth as previous vintages. Its strength is power and concentration. This is a youthful, tannic wine that very much reflects the Bolgheri soil. Once again, there’s an unmistakable saline taste. The acidity is outstanding. Long, penetrating, tannic finish. Clearly needs more time to evolve.
