The 2022 Tenuta San Guido Sassicaia is a refined and elegant red from Bolgheri, blending mostly Cabernet Sauvignon with a touch of Cabernet Franc. Despite a warm growing season, the wine maintains freshness and balance thanks to the region’s coastal breezes and cooler nights. Aged for nearly two years in French oak, it offers layered notes of red currant, blackberry, cedar, and Mediterranean herbs, with polished tannins and a long, graceful finish. Critics praise its depth, structure, and aging potential, suggesting it will shine best after a few more years in the cellar.
