The 1994 Sassicaia presents a mature ruby ​​red with slight garnet reflections at the rim – a typical characteristic of its age. On the nose, it unfolds a multifaceted bouquet with intense notes of ripe black cherries, plum compote, and cassis, harmoniously underpinned by tobacco, cedarwood, and a hint of leather. Subtle hints of licorice, dried herbs, and mineral nuances add further complexity.

On the palate, the wine presents itself as exceptionally elegant and balanced, with fine-grained, perfectly integrated tannins and a lively acidity that provides freshness and structure. The fruit is perfectly preserved in its ripeness, accompanied by spicy and balsamic nuances reminiscent of vanilla and subtly toasted oak. The finish is long and complex, characterized by a harmonious blend of fruit, spice, and mineral accents.

An impressive expression of Tenuta San Guido and the vintage's potential, it is now at the peak of its drinking maturity, but can continue to offer enjoyment for years to come in well-stored bottles. Ideal as a companion to game dishes, aged cheeses, or simply as a meditative wine.
