Robert Parker Wine Advocate:

To recap my assessment, and with the memory of the 100-point 2016 vintage so fresh in my mind, I would give this wine a seven out of 10 in terms of aromas, a five out of 10 in terms of mid-palate, and an eight out of 10 in terms of structure. Another way to read those conclusions is as follows: The 2017 Sassicaia was expertly built to withstand a long aging future, yet only time will tell if the beauty of the bouquet will evolve at the same pace. This fascinating wine magically captures the hallmarks of cool-temperature winemaking in one of the hottest vintages in recent years. Vintners, not vintage, won this round. Drink Date 2021-2040. Rating 94/100. -Monica Larner-

Vinous:

The 2017 Sassicaia shows the natural richness and intensity of the year while retaining its mid-weight sense of balance and overall poise. A burst of super-ripe red cherry/plum fruit makes a strong opening statement. Mocha, cinnamon, leather and dried herbs appear later, adding aromatic lift. The 2017 is a fairly immediate Sassicaia. Even so, it has enough energy to drink well for a number of years. Production is down 35%, a combination of naturally low yields, dehydration on the vine and then selection in the cellar. Most of the fruit comes from the estate’ hillside vineyards, older parcels that resisted the conditions better. Drink Date 2022-2037. Rating 94/100. -Antonio Galloni-

James Suckling:

The balance and beauty to this is impressive, offering sweet, ripe currants and flowers with some crushed-stone and dry-earth undertones. Full-bodied with soft, polished tannins and a long, creamy-textured finish. It’s polished, yet concentrated. Better after 2022, but already very seductive. Rating 96/100. -JamesSuckling.com-

falstaff.com:

Leuchtendes, sattes Rubinrot. Intensive und klar gezeichnete Nase, duftet nach Brombeeren und Cassis, etwas Kardamom. Zeigt am Gaumen sehr tollen Zug, viel saftige Frucht, Tannin öffnet sich in vielen Schichten, im Finale feine Kräuterwürze, salzig. Bewertung 97/100. -falstaff.com, Othmar Kiem & Simon Staffler-

WineEnthusiast.com:

Aromas of exotic spice, baked plum and French oak mingle with camphor and blue flower on the nose. This boasts extraordinary elegance and freshness despite the hot vintage, delivering flavors of juicy Marasca cherry, spiced blueberry, tobacco and licorice. Velvety, fine-grained tannins provide support while coffee and crushed mint linger on the finish. Drink Date 2022–2032. Rating 97/100. -WineEnhusiast.com, Kerin O’Keefe-
