Spicy Elegant Complex
The Supertoscano Sassarello by La Lecciaia embodies the essence of Tuscany, a region renowned for its richness in flavors and traditions. Produced from a blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot grapes, this wine is a true gem of Italian viticulture. On the nose, you'll detect notes of red fruit like cherry, enriched by nuances of cocoa and cedarwood. In the mouth, the structure is full-bodied, an explosion of flavors ranging from ripe fruit to earthy and spicy notes. Aging in oak barrels gives the wine complexity and balance that make it irresistible. Ideal for pairing with hearty dishes like roasts and aged cheeses, Sassarello is a wine that not only tells a story but becomes part of yours. Discover the magic of a glass of Sassarello and let yourself be transported to the heart of Tuscany.

Fattoria La Lecciaia was founded by Mauro Pacini in 1983 in Montalcino and covers 60 hectares, 15 of which are vineyards. At the beginning of the 2000s the family bought another property in Maremma in the Montecucco appellation, the company was then enriched by another 16 hectares of vineyards. The marvelous main cellar is always that of Montalcino set around the Manapetra vineyard from which the precious Cru produced by the company derives. The grapes are best valued thanks to careful and meticulous care during the vinification and the wine is subsequently embellished by years of aging in wood. The result is genuine wines that respect tradition with a modern imprint: structured reds with soft and velvety tannins over time, elegant fruity bouquets and remarkable and persistent palate.
