100 Robert Parker
VI had this wine in a blind tasting - I have had it frequently, and have never failed to give it a perfect rating. At the same time, I have often mis-identified it in blind tastings as the 1986 Mouton-Rothschild. In this tasting, the wine was phenomenal. The color remains an opaque purple. The bouquet is beginning to develop secondary aromas of cedar and truffles to go along with its intense cassis, black-raspberry, blackberry, tarry, toasty personality. Exceptionally dense, concentrated, and full-bodied, this wine possesses layers of concentrated fruit that are beautifully balanced by the wine's sweet tannin and well-integrated acidity. The finish lasts for nearly a minute. A monumental Cabernet Sauvignon, it is one of the greatest wines made this century. Tasting after tasting continues to confirm this wine's surreal level of quality. Despite being 11 years old, it remains youthful. My best guess for when it will reach full maturity is between 2000-2025. What a wine!

Unreal for its sheer hedonistic quality. Oozes rich and ripe fruit and sweet wood character, but doesn't taste overripe. Loaded with cassis and mineral flavors backed by tar and spice. Much thicker and darker in color than the '88, which is more elegant. In its history the winery has made no other Sassicaia with such massive tannins, yet the texture of the wine is supple. Made from very small yields. Tempting now.--Sassicaia vertical. Best after 2004. PM

Tenuta San Guido
Italiens ikonischstes Weingut, die Tenuta San Guido, hat nach einer ganzen Serie großer Jahrgänge des landesweit berühmtesten Weines Sassicaia seinen Ruhm sogar noch mehren können. Das in den 1940ern Jahren gegründete Anwesen brachte seine erste kommerzielle Produktion erst 1968 heraus. Sein hervorragender Ruf wurde 1985 von Robert Parker bestätigt, der dem Sassicaia desselben Jahres die höchste Punktzahl verlieh und somit seinen Erzeuger auf die weltweite Weinkarte setzte. Im Jahr 1994 erhielt dieses Gut als einziger Einzelbetrieb überhaupt seine eigene DOC, Bolgheri Sassicaia. Dieser Auszeichnung wird es mit seiner Produktion auf ganzer Linie gerecht, so auch mit dem Zweitwein Guidalberto und dem Drittwein Le Difese, die alle einzigartig und auf ihre Weise beeindruckend sind.
