Wine Description
An 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Cabernet Franc blend that set the standard for Bordeaux style reds in Tuscany, offering complex aromatics, structured tannins, and remarkable aging potential from 75 hectares of carefully managed vineyards.
Winery
Located in Bolgheri, Tuscany, Tenuta San Guido pioneered the Super Tuscan movement when Sassicaia was released commercially in 1971 after decades of family production. The 7,500 acre estate earned its own DOC designation in 1994 for Sassicaia, a singular honor reflecting the wine's revolutionary impact on Italian viticulture.
