About
this Six-Bottle
Sampler :
Wouldn’t it be nice to have a taste of Sassicaia
in your glass every day? Through the Balanced Approach to
buying wine, the opportunity actually awaits you, courtesy
of a hierarchy of three wines from the legendary Tenuta
San Guido estate.
In the ancient hamlet of Bolgheri, situated off the southern
coastline of Toscana, Tenuta San Guido launched the Super-Tuscan
movement with the debut of Sassicaia. It followed this
momentous introduction several years later with two accomplished
additions—Guidalberto (2000) and Le Difese (2001)—that
share in their famous relation’s notable prestige.
While each wine in this distinguished trio serves a distinct
objective, all provide incisive translations of Bolgheri’s
terroir and the hallmark style of the Tenuta San Guido
estate.
The 2005 Le Difese is the “everyday wine”—and
then some—while the 2005 Guidalberto turns in the
quintessential performance in the “entertainment
wine” category. The 2004 Sassicaia, of course, is
the “wine of longevity”—a masterpiece
of structure and classicism in the label’s brilliant
history. This sampler allows the enthusiast to share in
a legend that galvanized Toscana and the world, offering
that indelible Sassicaia signature for all occasions.
