The red wine Sassontino, vintage 2005 from the winery Azienda Agricola La Spinetta has been rated in 2016 by Othmar Kiem with 93 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the region Tuscany in Italy.
Deep, brilliant ruby with garnet shimmer. Compact and vivid on the nose, showing notes of liquorice, dark wild raspberries, blackberries, earthy tones in the background. Builds up nicely on the palate, lots of ripe fruit, notes of plums and ripe cherries, then opens up with hearty, grippy tannins in many layers, long finish, salty.
