Giants of Bordeaux | Finest and Rarest Wines

Sassicaia 2001 Bolgheri Sassicaia, DOC Excellent levels and appearance, tissue wrapped, bands included in owc; Excellents niveaux et excellente apparence, enveloppé de papier de soie, bandes incluses dans la cbo A classic year and a classical Sassicaia. The temperatures were cooler than usual which has given lovely fruit without huge structure. Nevertheless, it needs time, in true Sassicaia fashion. It was the first year in which they made selections for the 'grand vin' and this practice has continued. Utterly 'blooming' on the nose. So vibrant and fresh. The most beautiful, crunchy fruit. Fine, filigree texture. So sleek and with a lovely juicy finish.

sassicaia 2001 (12 bt)

Château Lafite 1990 Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé Level just into neck, label slightly soiled, Meregalli import label; Niveau juste dans le goulot, étiquette légèrement sale, étiquette d'importation Meregalli Cabernet Sauvignon 57%, Merlot 30%, Cabernet Franc 13%. In 2022, violets, heather and cherries on the nose - lift off! Super luscious, super silky on the palate - this is mega opulence twinned with Lafite finesse, breed and then that hedonistic charge for the finish. As it develops in the glass, the black fruit intensifies. I 'got' the wine and the vintage on our 45th wedding anniversary - I must be improving! And, more important, the wine itself could make its century, in true Lafite fashion. To prove the point, in 2025 and from magnum, it is even fresher and gloriously sleek breathtakingly beautiful.
