Fantastic. Decanted 1 hour. Showing plenty of cigar box, leather interwoven with oak spice. Solid core of black fruits. Will continue to evolve at least another decade.

Still young. Showing elegance of vintage. Hasn’t reached maturity in fruit.

A very nice showing from a somewhat overseen vintage of Sassicaia. It is a very elegant, fragrant yet full bodied wine that is really showing it’s best sides today. Complex and balanced. Currants, flowers, earth, spice and a mineral and fresh finish.
