Sassicaia 2009

Bolgheri, Tuscany, ItalyStrong mineral red fruit nose with cassis, black olive and savoury, cranberry, vanilla and menthol aromas. The attack is fresh with bright juicy firm sweet cassis fruit with that warm savoury Bolgheri dried herb undercurrent. Pure and stylish this is a terrific bottle of wine that will only improve over the next 15 years. Love the balance and finesse. The blend is 85 cabernet sauvignon and 15 cabernet franc.
