Description and technical sheet
Tignanello 2015 by Antinori originates from the namesake vineyard within the historic Tenuta Tignanello in San Casciano in Val di Pesa (FI). The soils here are calcareous, enriched with tuff elements, and are situated at an altitude between 350 and 400 meters above sea level. The blend composition has remained unchanged since 1982: Sangiovese with a small portion of Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. The aging process took place for 14-16 months in French and Hungarian oak barrels, partly new and partly second-use, with an additional 12 months of rest in the bottle. This is a legendary wine that should not be missing from any connoisseur's cellar. Tignanello, in fact, besides enjoying international fame, holds a series of significant records: it was the first Sangiovese to be aged in barriques, as well as the first modern red wine to be blended with non-traditional grape varieties such as Cabernet. Finally, it was among the first Chianti Classico reds not to use white grapes. It is produced only in the best vintages.
TIGNANELLO ANTINORI: TASTING NOTES
Tignanello 2015 by Antinori seduces with its intense ruby red color. The nose reveals enveloping aromas of blackberry and small forest fruits, combined with more evolved notes of chocolate and dark spices. On the palate, it offers a full and harmonious taste with vibrant and silky tannins that provide structure. The balance of fresh and savory flavors is captivating. The finish is long. At the table, it pairs well with aged cheeses as well as succulent recipes featuring red meats and game.
