Description

18.5 points - Jancis Robinson, Master of Wine

“This firmly structured, medium weight, restrained example of Sassicaia exhibits an impressive deep, dark ruby color, and a perfumed, super-ripe nose of black fruits and toasty vanillin from aging in new oak casks. In the mouth there is excellent concentration, crisp acidity, and plenty of tannin, glycerin, and alcohol in the admirable finish...another brilliant example of what heights Cabernet Sauvignon can achieve in the soils of Tuscany.” eRobertParker.com

“The brute power of the '88 brings to mind Château Latour in top vintages. Full-bodied, it's firm and rock-solid yet tastes very silky thanks to sensational concentration of fruit. Loads of minerally, peppery character and blackberry and red berry flavors. Supercharged, intense, long finish.“ Wine Spectator

Cellar-Tracker.com community tasting notes average score of 93.4 and median of 93 points in 29 notes.
