With its rich history, exceptional vineyard, and meticulous winemaking process, this vintage has captured the attention of connoisseurs and enthusiasts alike. The journey of Sassicaia Tenuta San Guido dates back to the 1940s when Mario Incisa della Rocchetta envisioned creating a Bordeaux-style wine in the Tuscan region of Italy. From hand-harvesting the Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc grapes to the careful sorting process, every step is a testament to their commitment to quality. The wine undergoes a meticulous aging process, spending 24 months in French oak barrels followed by an additional 6 months of bottle aging. This extended maturation allows the flavors to harmonize and evolve, resulting in a wine that is both approachable and age-worthy.
