2023 Tenuta San Guido – Bolgheri Sassicaia DOC (750ml)
Region
Bolgheri Sassicaia DOC, Tuscany, Italy
Grape
85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc
Vintage
2023
The wine that launched the Super Tuscan revolution — and the 2023 may be its greatest modern expression. Complex on the nose with fresh minty lavender, citrus and sweet spices, dark, ample and mysterious on the palate with blackberry, gravel, incense and new leather conveying tremendous somber intensity — elegant and supremely polished, one of the wines of the vintage. Only the second vintage in Sassicaia's history to receive a perfect score, joining the legendary 1985
100 Points
"Very few vintages of this legendary Tuscan wine deliver the immediate joy, richness and complexity found in the Tenuta San Guido 2023 Bolgheri Sassicaia. Tasted both before and after its January 2026 bottling, this is a wine that feels uncannily open and generous in its youth, a rare trait for Sassicaia, which is famously inscrutable at this stage. The 2023 vintage was marked by a cold winter and above-average rainfall followed by a severe outbreak of downy mildew that damaged leaves, forcing brutal fruit selection and resulting in a 20% reduction in yields. Only the estates willing to make these sacrifices succeeded, and the best wines rank among the most compelling and elusive of recent years."
