Sassicaia 1996 (OWC of 12 bot.)

Tasting notes

Guida “Vini d’Italia” 2000

"(...) The intense ruby color is not saturated, it has olfactory notes of spice and cedar, inorder to offer a wide range of fruit flavours, black currant to the ripe blackberry. It enters themouth discreetly and elegantly and is striking for its delicacy, to then acquire the flavour of a and well focused full size fruit. Mature, elegant, full, final has sweet, fine tannins, very persistent."
