this is the last vintage of sassicaia to flaunt its revolutionary vino da tavola di toscana status. the 1993 sassicaia represents the end of an important era in italian wine. perhaps its symbolic importance outweighs the actual substance inside the bottle. this is a nervous and tightly wrapped wine with an inward-looking and introspective personality. there are dusty mineral notes of crushed granite and sea shell with mild tones of spice and candied fruit. there is also a vinous note of winery or old barrel that i did not find in any of the other wines presented in this full retrospective. it seems to be a one-off thing.
