    The Sassicaia 2022 is a deep ruby coloured wine with an aromatic nose of blackcurrant, cedar, iron, Mediterranean herbs, thyme, rosemary and a fine graphite mineral thread. Full-bodied on the palate with chewy but polished tannins, vibrant acidity and a long, precise, herb-edged finish of great complexity and persistence. The Sassicaia 2022 is an outstanding wine that will reward cellaring of at least five years. Best from 2030 through 2055.

    "Plenty of red currant, cedar, iron and terra cotta aromas follow through to a medium to full body with graphite, sandalwood, red currants and fresh Mediterranean herbs. The tannins are chewy but polished. This needs three or four years of bottle age to come together. A structured wine for the cellar." - James Suckling, 98 points

    "Tightly coiled and concentrated, with a fascinating tension between the weight of raspberry, blackberry and strawberry coulis fruit and the wine's verticality. Lovely mid-palate sapidity is allied to fresh acidity and fine but dense tannins. A dark horse of a Sassicaia that isn't giving much away today but will greatly reward those who can cellar it for twelve years and more." - Decanter, 97 points
