Sassicaia 1990

Without doubt, one of the wines of the inaugural Tuscany Connoisseur Week.  If you want proof that the great wines of Tuscany can compete with the greatest wines of the world, look no further. Intoxicating incense and cassis on the nose, the palate delivers a harmonious smorgasbord of flavours: blackberries, morello cherries, thyme, leather, all dancing across the palate – there is depth here, restrained power, fine tannins – in a golden moment but will last for many more years.
