To begin with Sassicaia 2020 is cool and alluring. It moves to a deeper, slightly spiced currant and anise. It finishes quite tight, youthful and favouring freshness and acidity without overt tannin. 2020 aligns with 2010 and perhaps 2014 in style. 2031 to 2048
Tenuta San Guido Le Difese 2021 @ £105.00 IB per 6
Difese is named for the tusks of wild boar that roam these 300 odd hectares. Remember the vast majority of land here is wild or used for their racehorse training business. With a little more Sangiovese from a vintage everyone is very excited about in Tuscany, Difese is delicate, aromatic, with wild flowers and a hint of char. A thing of beauty. 2023 to 2027
