Tenuta San Guido Sassicaia – 2011

Tenuta San Guido were the original pioneers of the sunny and beautiful Bolgheri region of Southern Tuscany. Since its first vintage in 1968, their flagship wine Sassicaia has now become Italy’s best-known fine wine. This blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Cabernet Franc is the epitome of class and elegance. Its perfectly ripe red fruit is seamlessly integrated with the silkiest of tannins and a freshness which is characteristic of their windy hillside vineyards. This is quite possibly the finest 2011 Cabernet based-red wine from anywhere in the world.
