The Tenuta San Guido 2020 Bolgheri Sassicaia speaks to those who seek a more voluptuous, opulent and, ultimately, more accessible wine. This vintage is a precise reflection of Coastal Tuscany, as opposed to a more generic "Tuscan" wine from elsewhere in this large central Italian region. You taste the ripeness and soft fruit weight that comes from a coastal appellation with especially bright luminosity and warm Mediterranean offshore breezes. Sassicaia from the cool vintages is a famously reticent or withholding wine in its earliest years, requiring a long lead time before it eases into an ideal drinking window. That's definitely not the case here. This wine is beautiful and compelling straight out of the gate, showing a lovely mix of dark fruit, oak spice, balanced freshness, textural richness, soft tannins and an expertly contained 14% alcohol content. The wine's immediate character is what distinguishes this vintage, and I wouldn't get too fussed by exaggerated cellar-aging ambitions. The wine awards sheer pleasure in its current form, with dazzling primary fruit and soaring intensity over the near and medium term.

Om denne vin

Bolgheri

Bolgheri er en prestigefyldt vinregion beliggende i det nordlige Toscana, Italien, mellem Middelhavet og de bakkede landskaber. Regionen er mest kendt for produktionen af rødvine, der ofte består af Bordeaux-sorterne som Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc og Petit Verdot, der er kendt for deres fyldige karakter, komplekse aromaer og lagringsevne. Bolgheris terroir bestående af kombinationen af havpåvirkning og det varme toscanske klima skaber gunstige betingelser for vinproduktion. Nogle betydningsfulde vingårde i denne region er Ornellaia, Tignanello og Guado al Tasso, der alle har rig vintradtion og skaber nogle af Italiens mest ikoniske vine.
