85% Cab Sauv and 15% Cab Franc from Italy. Drinks on the more mellow side compared to a big California Cab. — 8 days ago

If Burgundy is the pennacle of Pinot Noir… Pinot Noir by the creator of Sassicaia from The Argentine Patagonia is its evil twin… That is what’s in my glass. This is the entry level 2014 and it is mirroring some of the Premier Cru Burgundy’s I’ve tried in the past... Cheers! — 7 months ago

9.1

Beautiful ruby/ brick in color with a wide brick rim.

On the nose red fruits with light oak, licorice, spices, tobacco leaf, herbs, coffee, dark chocolates, light vegetables, wet leaves and light vinaigrette.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with cherries, raspberries, tobacco leaf, dark coffee, dark chocolates, earth, wet leaves, herbs, black pepper, light vegetables and spices.

Medium finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This 9 year old Super Tuscan is drinking beautifully now. Elegant and complex with a soft mouthfeel.

This is not Sassicaia, its older brother, but very enjoyable nonetheless. Nicely balanced, rich and elegant.

Showing lots of sweet red fruits with earth notes to balance them out.

Feels more like a Brunelo di Montalcino, and feels much older than it is. Might be the way it was stored.

Wine Spectator 92 points.

Good by itself or with food. I paired with light appetizers.

A blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot.

12.5% alcohol by volume.

If you’re expecting CA taste then it’s probably not up your alley. More in line with a Tenuta,

So we enjoyed this side by side with the ’05 Sassicaia. This is a bit more evolved and comes across as an older wine. It’s richer with an inky texture. Dark fruits, pencil lead, coffee, herbs, soy, black olives, chocolate. — 8 months ago

Out of Sassicaia so had to settle for this instead - tough! 🙄
Have to say, equally good. Big, dark fruits, a little earthy and chocolatey. — a year ago

This was an awesome Malbec and went great with our Italian meal. It followed a Sassicaia and held its ground well. Full bodied and smooth as silk. Delicious — 4 months ago

Delectable - this is the Riserva. Dining at Do Forni in Venice which won a Grand Award for its Wine List from Wine Spectator. They have amazing verticals of Cuvées like Sassicaia, Solaia, Gaja, Tignanello etc…and, of course, Biondi Santi. I was hoping to pick a Soldera but only a magnum left at a hideous price. An aged tawny rim, tinge of orange. Burnt orange peel and Georgie thought a note of rubber. An Animale/Gamey note which didn’t detract. Dried cherry, loamy notes like the previous night’s Salvioni. This is Brunello royalty which is ridiculously long lived. At 19 years of age this is infanticide for Biondi Santi. We visited the winery about 6 years ago where I bought a 2001 which hasn’t even entered its drinking window yet. Medium plus tannins. This was a special treat. — 8 months ago
