Comment on noteThe wine
Imagine yourself in the heart of Tuscany, where the sun caresses the vines and the sea breeze whispers its secrets. This Bolgheri IGT, the Sassosolo 2019 from the i Luoghi estate, is a true gem that transports you directly into this magical atmosphere, an authentic expression of its terroir.
Located in the prestigious Bolgheri appellation, the Az. Agr. i Luoghi estate passionately cultivates its vines under the Tuscan sun. This wine comes from a single grape variety, Cabernet Sauvignon, which finds a particularly harmonious expression here. The 2019 vintage is the result of meticulous fermentation in steel tanks, using indigenous yeasts, thus respecting the deep identity of the grape.
In your glass, the Sassosolo reveals itself in a deep ruby red, inviting discovery. On the nose, I perceive an enveloping bouquet of ripe red fruits, enhanced by spicy notes and a subtle floral touch. After 18 months spent in small oak barriques, its complexity has been refined, also offering earthy and balsamic nuances. On the palate, the richness of red fruits combines with a pleasant freshness and silky tannins, for a velvety taste and a balanced structure that lingers long.
This Sassosolo 2019 is the ideal companion for your warmest meals. I particularly recommend it with grilled or sauced red meats, flavorful game, or aged cheeses that will reveal all its nuances. It is a wine that calls for sharing and conviviality, and will transform a simple dinner into a true sensory experience. Let yourself be carried away by this ode to the Bolgheri terroir, a bottle that whispers the history of Tuscany to you with every sip.
