Sassicaia 1998 Bolgheri Sassicaia, DOCIn original tissuesThis was a fabulous year for Bolgheri and Sassicaia has made a stunning wine. A wonderful, vibrant blackberry nose leads to a real earthy/spicy taste, with lots of thick, mouth-filling fruit. It is very juicy and chocolatey, with red fruit, tobacco and mocha. Like lovely sweet blackberry jam on the palate. This has now had the time in bottle to be really complex. Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 9112 bts (owc)Estimates are per lot
