Sassicaia--Vintage 1985
Tuscany. Marchese Incisa della Rocchetta
Not in original wooden case. One damaged capsule. U.S.A. import slip labels. Good appearance. Levels base of neck or better
Tasting note: This wine was impressive for its deep colour, fresh aromatics and vibrant flavours. It offered attractive plummy fruit, cassis and toasted oak notes on a medium-bodied frame with excellent length and fine, silky tannins, conveying an impression of understated elegance.
