Big, dark and tannic. Needs another ten years before opening- and then it will be stellar. — 2 days ago
One of Vikki 's, 2016. Had with cheese in the Hamptons Oct 21 2024 — 14 days ago
Served alongside beef short rib, xo sauce, pickled mustard seed, cumin stir-fried asparagus. This bottle of 2006 was throwing a ton of sediment. Showing mostly red fruits with red currants, new leather, tobacco, earth, forest floor, baking spices…a touch green. Hello Cabernet Franc!! Good structure. The finish is long. Every time I have the opportunity to enjoy Sassicaia, I am reminded why it’s one of the great wines of Italy. I just wish it wasn’t so expensive. Drink now through 2036. — 3 days ago

Very young and acidic but still the bones of a good wine are there. Cherries, strawberries and chocolate. Went well with venison gulasch and german dumplings. #winteriscoming 🐺 — 20 days ago
Still a bit too young. I’ll keep the other bottle tucked away for maybe two or three years. — 17 days ago
