1971 they released the wine alongside 32 other Bordeaux wines and sassicaia came in first place it was the 1968 vintage and this is a more recent invention the third wine of this famous property. This is a blend of 70 Cabernet Sauvignon and 30 Sangiovese a very forward and seductive wine with red currents red plum fresh earth with fine herbs coco and tobacco spice. Very smooth and silky on the tongue with fresh red berry and plum fruit smooth round tannins and a good bit of that earth and spice through the finish. Finish 40+ excellent

Guidalberto came out with the 2000 vintage.

2007 vintage. Just right now. Smooth smoky tannins. Black plums. Still fresh, good food wine.
