SASSICAIA MAGNUM TENUTA SAN GUIDO 2019 DESCRIPTION

The best known wine in the world, the epitome of balance in terms of body and complexity. A rich and elegant wine that represents the pride of Italian: in a word, Sassicaia. Sassicaia was born from the mind of Mario Incisa della Rocchetta that, even in the twenties, dreamed of creating a wine of breed. He decides to plant Cabernet in the Tenuta San Guido, because he noticed the similarity between this land and the area of Bordeaux: stony, like a "Sassicaia". Over the years, thanks to the valuable contribution of the winemaker Giacomo Tachis, Sassicaia has become the symbol of a high quality wine production, known and appreciated throughout the world. Sassicaia Tenuta San Guido will enrich all occasions and sumptuous dinners, but sipped in pleasant solitude and meditation will surprise you like no one. This reserve is a gem that we offer. A fantastic wine, of an exceptional winery and of an amazing vintage!
