2021 Antinori Tignanello
Tignanello is a Super Tuscan icon, which offering towering quality at a particularly attractive price, has won a well-deserved place in the hearts of wine collectors across the globe. Even the most ardent Francophile connoisseurs find a small, guilty place for this one in their wine cellars. Simply put, Tignanello is a giant among Italian wines. The first Sangiovese wine to be aged in classic barriques and the first modern red wine blended with non-traditional varieties (principally cabernet.) It is also one of the first red wines from Chianti Classico not to include white grapes. At the same time, Tignanello, together with Sassicaia, Ornellaia, Solaia and Masseto, is one of the original Super Tuscan wines which have elevated themselves to their rightful place beside Brunello & Barolo as Italian wine royalty. The 98 Point 2021 Tignanello is yet another stunning example of the Marchesi Piero Antinori's sky-high winemaking standards. It also demonstrates his prowess in delivering one of the finest wines anywhere in the world, while making it accessible to most of us collectors at an incredibly reasonable price point.
