Sassicaia Bolgheri

Bolgheri Red Blend

The Sassicaia Sassicaia Bolgheri is a remarkable red blend that emanates sophistication and elegance. Hailing from the prestigious Bolgheri region in Italy, this wine captivates with its deep crimson color, reflecting its rich character. The body is full, offering a luxurious mouthfeel that envelopes the palate, while the acidity is bright and lively, contributing to a refreshing balance. This red blend showcases prominent fruit intensity with notes of dark berries and a hint of plum, which harmoniously intertwine with undertones of spice and earthy nuances. The tannins are notable yet refined, providing structure without overwhelming the wine's finesse. The Sassicaia is beautifully dry, making it a perfect companion for a variety of dishes, from roasted meats to hearty pasta. This wine not only exemplifies the mastery of Bolgheri winemaking but also invites you to immerse yourself in its lavish complexity.

Tuscany / Toscana

Italy's rich food and wine heritage is nowhere better demonstrated than historic Tuscany. You can eat and drink like a king here—ideally on a grand terrazza overlooking medieval hillsides strewn with olive and cypress trees. From mouthwatering whites for sipping with antipasti, to sophisticated reds that elevate the meat dishes of Florence (and of course leaving room for sweet Vin Santo with dessert), Tuscany has it all. Sangiovese is the region's star grape, giving us not just Chianti, but also Brunello di Montalcino, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano and the epic Super Tuscan blends.
