Antinori 2020 Tignanello Toscana IGT Red Wine
3226
Product Details
(96 RP-WA) The Marchesi Antinori 2019 Tignanello was born in
a classic growing season that saw some cooling summer rains and relatively
stress-free conditions. This is an elegant and extremely polished wine made
with mostly Sangiovese and smaller parts Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.
Here too, the small blending element of Cabernet Franc has been slowly
increasing in recent years. The 2019 vintage was born with a good amount of
power and tannic structure, and maceration times were slightly reduced as a
result. This less extractive approach shapes a polished and elegant wine with
plenty of bright berry fruit, cherry, dried mint, blue flower, blood orange and
rusty earth. The palate is more compact and streamlined. It shows beautiful
grace.
(96 WS) A supple, elegant red highlighted by bright cherry,
black currant, violet, tobacco, iron and oak spice aromas and flavors. Though
fluid and seemingly approachable now, this is well-structured and shows the
balance to age. Fine length. Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.
