The DOC Bolgheri Sassicaia
THE PRIVILEGE OF BEING ABLE TO SELECT THE GRAPES

Sassicaia is much more than just a wine; it is a true masterpiece of Italian winemaking. Produced by the renowned Tenuta San Guido estate, located in the picturesque Bolgheri region of Tuscany, Sassicaia is recognized as one of the most prized and admired wines in the world.
The history of Sassicaia begins in the 1940s, when Marchese Mario Incisa della Rocchetta, driven by his passion for the great wines of Bordeaux, decided to plant vineyards on his family estate. After years of experimentation and refinement, Sassicaia made its official debut in 1968, and since then it has never ceased to fascinate and win the hearts of connoisseurs around the world.
Visually, Sassicaia displays a deep, brilliant ruby red color. On the nose, it offers a complex and captivating bouquet: notes of ripe red fruit, such as cherry, plum, and currant, blend harmoniously with hints of sweet spice, tobacco, leather, and an elegant touch of vanilla and oak, derived from aging in French barriques. Each vintage of Sassicaia is a unique experience, reflecting the winemakers' skill and dedication in capturing the finest expressions of the Bolgheri terroir.
On the palate, Sassicaia is a wine of extraordinary elegance and depth. Its tannic structure is velvety and well-integrated, lending a pleasant smoothness to the palate. The lively acidity perfectly balances the richness of the flavors, offering a freshness that makes every sip a true pleasure. The finish is long and persistent, with an aftertaste that recalls the fruity and spicy notes perceived on the nose, inviting a second sip.
Sassicaia is the perfect accompaniment to rich and refined dishes, such as red meats, game, roasts, and aged cheeses. However, it can also be enjoyed on its own to fully appreciate its complexity and depth. Each bottle of Sassicaia is the result of meticulous care and passion.
We invite all wine lovers to discover Sassicaia and embark on a unique sensory journey. This wine tells the story of a land rich in tradition and beauty, and Tenuta San Guido's art of producing the highest quality wines. Choosing Sassicaia means enjoying an experience of luxury and refinement, transforming every occasion into an unforgettable moment. Try Sassicaia and be captivated by one of the world's greatest wines.
