Description
Sassicaia 1998
Bolgheri Sassicaia, DOC
Lot 8541: u. 7bn, 2 labels badly damp stained, 1 of which damaged, rest damp stained - 5 of which damaged, Lot 8542: u. 7bn, 1ts, labels bin soiled and damp stained, several have blue marks, 1 slightly wrinkled
This was a fabulous year for Bolgheri and Sassicaia has made a stunning wine. A wonderful, vibrant blackberry nose leads to a real earthy/spicy taste, with lots of thick, mouth-filling fruit. It is very juicy and chocolatey, with red fruit, tobacco and mocha. Like lovely sweet blackberry jam on the palate. This has now had the time in bottle to be really complex. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
