4.60 / 5.0750 ml@MI6 · Elegance & Power: Sassicaia and Saffredi Through the Years

The wine's bouquet is indeed a thing of beauty, filled with delicate and flowery notes. The scents of raspberry, red flowers, red plums, smoke, cured meat, and herbs create a tempting aroma. Its great balance and structure, along with a multitude of details, contribute to a deeply engaging drinking experience. The long, flavourful aftertaste is both neat and complex, enhancing its overall deliciousness. It's a wine that not only invites appreciation but also instils a desire for more, making you want to savour it repeatedly.

Wine #7 on Elegance & Power: Sassicaia and Saffredi Through the Years event.
