The 2023 Sassoalloro is vibrant and expressive, offering aromas of ripe cherry, wild raspberry, plum, and violet layered with notes of dried herbs, spice, and subtle earth. The palate is medium-bodied with silky tannins and bright acidity, showcasing pure red fruit flavours, floral complexity, and a touch of savoury character. Fresh and elegant, the finish is long, balanced, and distinctly Tuscan in style.
About the Winery, Production & Critical Reputation
Jacopo Biondi Santi was founded by Jacopo Biondi Santi, a direct descendant of the family credited with creating Brunello di Montalcino. Located in Tuscany, the estate focuses on producing wines that express the character of Sangiovese through a modern lens while remaining deeply connected to the region’s heritage. Sassoalloro is crafted entirely from Sangiovese and is named after a dramatic volcanic rock formation overlooking the vineyards. Unlike many Super Tuscans that rely on international varieties, Sassoalloro showcases the purity and versatility of Sangiovese in a more contemporary style. The wine is aged in French oak to enhance texture and complexity while preserving freshness and varietal character. Wine lovers looking to buy Jacopo Biondi Santi Sassoalloro 2023 will recognize it as a refined and distinctive expression of Tuscan Sangiovese from one of Italy’s most historic wine families.
