Tenuta San Guido Bolgheri Sassicaia Cabernet Sauvignon Cabernet Franc 2010

$349

The 2010 Sassicaia Bolgheri Sassicaia brings back some of the brambly rosemary and wild Mediterranean brush that was missing in 2009. This will greatly appeal to enthusiasts of Sassicaia's trademark elegance. The wine shows extreme purity that brings its many beautiful aromas into startling focus and clarity. Lingering tones of black fruit and Oriental spice add subtle shades at the back. The wine mostly certainly shows its pedigree in the exciting and beautifully balance manner it evolves in the glass: It tells a new story each time you return to observe the bouquet...

2010. Soft texture, riper fruit, mostly plum. Acid really jumps on the finish and seemed a little out of place. Felt a little off-kilter. #FancyWine

Very noble, lots of complexity and concentration. Will definitely improve with age.
