Tenuta San Guido Sassicaia Bolgheri, Tuscany, Italy 2022

Sassicaia, Bolgheri, Tuscany, Italy 2022

One of Italy’s most iconic wines, Sassicaia 2022 is a benchmark Super Tuscan blending Cabernet Sauvignon with Cabernet Franc from Bolgheri’s famed gravelly soils. Elegant yet powerful, it offers layers of blackcurrant, dark cherry, cedar, graphite, and Mediterranean herbs, framed by polished tannins and vibrant acidity. Seamless, refined, and built to age, this is a classic expression of Sassicaia’s signature balance and pedigree—equally compelling to enjoy young with decanting or to cellar for decades.

"The 2022 Sassicaia is a deeper, youthful magenta/red color with a slightly deeper aromatic profile of rosemary, gravelly earth, sage, mossy earth, and fresh black cherries. The palate has slightly broader shoulders but remains elegant. It has more plushness on the mid-palate, while its acidity shines through with the finish. It will need several years to shed its baby fat and show its full potential." Jeb Dunnuck 97+
