When it comes to Italian wines, we have to mention Tuscany. Tuscany is located in central Italy, the star of Italian wines, and here there is a concept called "Super Tuscan", which is not a specific wine style, but refers to wines that do not follow the appellation system and are made in a very different way from the traditional Italian winemaking method. According to Liv-ex's 2015 report, all but one of the top 10 most commercially valuable Italian wines come from the Tuscany region, and most of them are Super Tuscany.
 
The birth of Super Tuscany is closely related to a wine. At that time, a winery owner used Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc to produce a Bordeaux-style wine, Sassicaia, a product that was far removed from traditional Italian wines, and also provided new ideas for Tuscan wine producers, and since then, Super Tuscany has become popular.
 
Sassica, better known as the King of Italian Wine, ranks first among the "Four Elegances". Due to the quality of the wines, Sagidiaa is the only Super Tuscany that has broken the Italian wine classification system, and has exclusive access to the single-appellation Bolgheri Sassicaia DOC, which until then could only be recognized as Regional Table Wine (IGT) and Daily Table Wine (VDT).
 
In the Wine Spectator's list of the top 10 best wines of 2018, Shishijaya was named "Wine of the Year". It's so well-known that people tend to confuse it with a winery, when in fact it's just the name of a wine. The winery that created Sagijaya is called San Guito, just 13 kilometers from the Tuscan coast, with 72 hectares of vineyards spread between 100 and 400 meters above sea level; The sea breeze blows all year round, and the temperature adjustment is flexible, avoiding extreme weather that is too cold or too hot; The vines are older, deeply rooted and have rocky soils that are well drained and breathable.
 
Cabernet Sauvignon is up to 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Cabernet Franc in the size of the Shyūgaya wine, and the wine must be aged in French oak barrels for 26 months. The Sassetjaya has a softness rarely seen in Cabernet Sauvignon, and is easy to drink even when you are young, because the grapes are usually picked a little earlier than they are ripe, when the grapes are not fully ripe, the sugar content of the grapes is not too high, and the red wines are more conservative in alcohol. Xi Shi Jiaya is currently one of the top red wines with the highest cost performance, on Jingdong, Tmall and other e-commerce platforms, you can generally buy a bottle for 1500-2500 yuan.
