Sassicaia stands as one of Italy`s most extraordinary and iconic wines. As a ‘Super-Tuscan’, it deviates from tradition by blending grape varieties not native to Tuscany, drawing inspiration and presenting a noteworthy competition to Bordeaux. The 1979 vintage is a blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Cabernet Franc, which underwent a maturation period of 21 months in a mix of French and Yugoslavian oak barrels. Exhibiting elegance and sophistication, it`s difficult to envision this wine improving any further – it`s already at its pinnacle.
