Parker about Sassicaia 1986
Forever in the shadow of the legendary vintage that precedes it, the 1986 Sassicaia never garnished the attention or accolades that this wine truly deserved. This is yet another underdog vintage that showed surprising results in this retrospective (and likewise has never been formally reviewed by Robert Parker Wine Advocate). This effort from 1986 offers integrity and grace with fine and finessed aromas of dried berry, tobacco, tar, licorice and grilled rosemary. That elegance has prevailed over the many years this wine has evolved in the bottle. This vintage does not show the heavy darkness of 1987. Instead the wine offers a vertical approach with bright intensity and fresh menthol.

Sassicaia 1986
The 1986 Sassicaia is an iconic vintage of one of the most famous Super Tuscan wines, impressing with its exceptional elegance and longevity. The nose unfolds a complex and profound bouquet with aromas of ripe blackcurrants, cherries, and plums, as well as notes of tobacco, cedarwood, leather, and a fine mineral component typical of the Bolgheri terroir.
On the palate, the 1986 Sassicaia demonstrates a remarkable balance between freshness and structure. The tannins are still present, yet velvety and well-integrated, while the lively acidity lends the wine an elegant balance. The fruit flavors harmonize perfectly with the secondary and tertiary notes that have developed over time, and the wine displays impressive depth and complexity. The finish is long, elegant, and characterized by subtle spice and minerality.
This vintage has achieved beautiful harmony with maturity and is an impressive example of Sassicaia's ageing potential, which is expected to continue to gain complexity in the coming years. A masterpiece for lovers of mature, elegant red wines.
Tenuta San Guido
Information about the winemaker:
What kind of winery are we talking about when we talk about San Guido and why is it so special? The history of San Guido can be traced back to the 1940s. The estate was founded by Mario Incisa della Rochetta, who was considered a visionary of his kind at the time. His descendants continue to run the winery extremely successfully and consistently stick to the methods of their predecessors, which certainly contributes significantly to the success of the wine. The Sassicaia has been imitated again and again over the years. However, no other producer has succeeded in copying the noble drop, because: The Sassicaia is unique.
