Sassicaia--Vintage 1995
Tuscany. Estate-bottled: Marchese Incisa della Rochetta
Tasting Note: The exceptional 95 has two decades of aging potential ahead of it. The wine boasts a nearly opaque ruby/purple color and a knockout nose of lead pencil, pain grille, minerals, licorice, and blackcurrant. In the mouth, it is tightly knit and tannic, but superbly concentrated as well as remarkably pure. It possesses that sweet, rich midpalate that often distinguishes great wines from merely good wines. The 1995 appears to be a Sassicaia to rival the estate's other top vintage. Noted 92+. R. Parker
