Bolgheri Sassicaia Cabernet Sauvignon Cabernet Franc


Sassicaia came through in a big way, entering its maturity, complex but remarkably pure and balanced. Biserno is a monster, big potential but should be revisited in ten or more years

Ripe and enveloping. A bit of mint, dark fruit, Chocolately notes. Technically good but a little indistinct. Time in bottle should help
