Tenuta San Guido Bolgheri Sassicaia DOC 2021 14% Vol. 0,75l

THE PRIVILEGE OF BEING ABLE TO SELECT GRAPES

In a property that stretches over 2,500 hectares, we have chosen to select and plant vineyards exclusively on the most suitable lands, covering just a small area of the total surface. An area that is unique in terms of soil type, microclimate, and exposure that deserves its own appellation: DOC Bolgheri Sassicaia.

“We believe that Sassicaia is one of the greatest wine creations of the century. It also happens to be simply wonderful to drink. May it thrive through the new millennium”.

Serena Sutcliffe MW & David Peppercorn MW.

Wine from the rocks

The 1968 vintage saw the debut of Sassicaia, a courageous wine that at the time, broke away from the standard way of making Tuscan Wine.
The wine is named after the stony soil which it comes from, and, by its nature, is destined to go far.
