Sassicaia 2015 is a beautifully integrated wine with lovely depth and great length. On the nose, expansive red cherry fruits and wild berries mingle with notes of savoury spice, Mediteranean herbs and a hint of lavender. The palate is refreshing and elegant with layers of complexity. Succulent red cherry and sweet plum fruits and a note of delicate spice lead to an incredibly long finish with a refined mineral character. Multi-layered and intensely flavoured, this is a vintage which will benefit from long ageing. Drink from 2023 – 2040.

“A darker, more structured Barolo than his sibling, Prapo’ is an incredibly pure expression of the terroir of Serralunga.

An exciting release that has the potential to be enjoyed for the next 10 years.” Armit Wines
