Bolgheri Sassicaia 2018 MG, Tenuta San Guido
The 2018 Sassicaia from Tenuta San Guido, in this prestigious Magnum format, is a monument to sculptural nobility and timeless elegance. Following the sunny 2017, the 2018 vintage marked a masterful return to freshness and balance, elevating Cabernet to an absolute nobility defined by precision and symmetry. The Magnum format acted as a perfect case, allowing an extremely slow micro-oxygenation that today reveals a wine of extraordinary fragrance. On the nose, it is an ecstasy of aristocratic complexity: notes of small red fruits, currant, and blackberry blend with deep hints of graphite, Mediterranean scrub, fine spices, and a balsamic trace of eucalyptus of extraordinary nobility.
