ALWAYS WINNING
Sassicaia 2021 climbs onto the bandwagon, one of the best vintages ever produced, joining the epic 1985 and the extraordinary 2016. A vintage announced as a must-have for all Supertuscan lovers but, moreover, the The past of this wine speaks clearly and the haul of awards that it collects at each harvest says a lot about the status it enjoys. Freshness and the forecast of a strong and powerful vintage, among the most successful vintages, suggest a rapid rise on the market and, with it, the difficult availability of this giant which, with each new harvest, is constantly an absolute triumph!
Intense purple red with a violet edge, it has an expressive aromatic spectrum from the first moment you sink your nose into the glass: black cherry and crunchy berries intertwine with rosemary and juniper, all surrounded by ethereal brushstrokes of medicinal herbs , with a thick memory of tar in the background. The tasting is the nerve center of the wine itself and is concentrated in a freshness that is finely intertwined with the solidity of the tannin, for a sensation of balance and harmony difficult to find elsewhere and worthy of a great Bordeaux. Precise, sharp, aristocratic: Sassicaia 2021 is a wine destined for great things.
Ideal with second courses of noble meats, such as pheasant and roe deer, it also proves magical as a meditation wine.
