More about the WineryReviews of Sassicaia Magnum 2012
Red ruby colour with reddish brown edges. The smell of violets was so strong that it seemed curious to me. Predominating aromas of red fruits.
Better pair it with vegetables.
It is worth re-buying this Marchesi Incisa Della Rocchetta Bolgheri Sassicaia Magnum.
Körsbärsröd. Det luktade kola och kaffe. Choklad och kola smak.
