93 Robert Parker
This is a beautiful wine that has passed the test of time with flying colors. The 1990 Sassicaia is a thrilling expression that opens to succulent darkness and deep layers of ripe fruit opulence. Dried blackberry, plum and black currant keep the fruit profile high. Background notes of cumin, exotic spice and cured tobacco add power and weight. Lighter tones of balsam herb and crushed mineral are important components of the wine's elegance. The mouthfeel is structured and richly textured, but balanced by its acidity. Back when Robert Parker first reviewed this wine in 1994, he predicted that it would last through the first decade of the 21st century. Given how well the wine is showing now, it's safe to extend that drinking window even further.
93 Wine Spectator
A sexy wine that has gained somewhat since 1993 when we rated it 90 points. Not as powerful as the '88, nor as rich as the '85, this is still prototypical Sassicaia for its great complexity. Offers mineral, lead pencil, tar, cassis and black olive notes, solid backbone and firm, elegant finish.--Sassicaia vertical. 10,000 cases made. PM

Tenuta San Guido
Domaine le plus emblématique d’Italie, la Tenuta San Guido a atteint un nouveau palier de reconnaissance grâce à une succession récente de grands millésimes portant la signature italienne la plus illustre : Sassicaia. Fondé dans les années 1940, le domaine n’a commercialisé ses premiers vins qu’en 1968. En 1985, Robert Parker a réaffirmé sa réputation en attribuant au Sassicaia de la même année, la note suprême de 100, lui assurant un rayonnement international. Son succès a été tel qu’il a débouché en 1994sur la création de « Bolgheri Sassicaia » - unique DOC dédiée à un seul domaine. Cette distinction singularise l’ensemble des vins, depuis le second vin Guidalberto, jusqu’au troisième, Le Difese, chaque cuvée affichant ses spécificités et son exemplarité à sa façon.
