Bolgheri Sassicaia 2013 MG, Tenuta San Guido
Profile of monumental refinement, vertical and deeply mineral. On the nose, small dark fruits, noble spices, graphite, and balsamic notes emerge. On the palate, it is vibrant and sculptural, characterized by very fine tannins and noble freshness that, thanks to the Magnum format, ensures longevity of rare nobility; perfect balance and eternal finish.
Bolgheri Sassicaia 2013 MG, Tenuta San Guido
The 2013 Sassicaia from Tenuta San Guido, here presented in the Magnum format, is a monument to sculptural nobility, unanimously considered one of the most elegant and classic versions of the last two decades. In a masterful and balanced vintage like 2013, this Cabernet elevates finesse to absolute nobility. The Magnum format allowed for slower, more protected maturation, preserving extraordinary fragrance and mineral tension. On the nose, it is an ecstasy of vertical and pure complexity: notes of blackcurrant, Mediterranean scrub, and cherry blend with deep hints of graphite, medicinal herbs, dark chocolate, and a trace of undergrowth of extraordinary nobility. On the palate, it is magnificent: the entry is silky yet possesses an iron strength, supported by a noble acidic backbone and sculptural tannins, dense and aristocratically refined, caressing the palate with precision and finishing on an endless, savory note of absolute nobility.
