Robert Parker (88)

The 1972 Sassicaia shows a surprising level of richness and dark succulence despite its advanced age. That more opulent approach does however segue to moments of monotone and flatness that also characterize this slowly aged Tuscan red. You get cured meat, plum, ground espresso and bitter chocolate. Despite that wild aromatic ride with its various high points and low points, this remains a very valid and interesting wine that does not lack in terms of overall integrity or persistence.
