A bottle of Bolgheri Sassicaia 2003, bottled at Tenuta San Guido. This is a blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Cabernet Franc.
'The salinity comes through clearly at this point, which gives beautiful lift and grip. I just love how Sassicaia wines can play with tannins. They start so delicate and soft and yet close in beautifully. This has more grip and youth than the 2007. The rosemary and heat-baked herbs of Tuscany stand shoulder to shoulder with a concentrated blackberry richness and a salty tang that delivers freshness. This is the magic of Bolgheri — the coastal influence and the old vines. 95/100' Jane Anson, Decanter, tasted 2016
