Sassicaia--Vintage 1990
Tuscany. Estate-bottled: Marchese Incisa della Rochetta
Lot 734, 736 and 737 are offered in cartons
Tasting Note: The 1990 Sassicaia appears to be the finest wine made at this estate since the nearly perfect 1985. It boasts a saturated purple, almost bluish color, and a sensational yet unevolved and youthful aromatic profile of sweet, nearly over-ripe blackcurrants, cedar, tobacco, and toasty new oak. Full-bodied, with staggering concentration and extract levels, this tannic, super-pure, well-defined Cabernet possesses low enough acidity and sweet enough tannin to make it accessible to those readers unable to defer their gratification. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #95 (Oct 1994)
