Product Notes

Antinori Tenuta Tignanello Tignanello is an enchanting and prestigious Italian red wine, embodying the elegance of the Tuscan region. Its compelling blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc results in a rich, complex flavour profile dressed with luscious ripe red fruit, earthy spice undertones, and a hint of fresh balsamic. Maturing in oak barrels imparts it a beautiful balance and smooth tannins. The wine's intense ruby red colour, full-bodied texture, and lingering finish make it a true delight for wine connoisseurs. Its stellar critic scores are a testament to its impeccable quality and enduring legacy.

Tasting Notes

Tignanello 2021 is ruby red with intense purple hues. The nose is complex: notes of ripe plums, blackberries and candied orange peels lead to pleasant hints of dark chocolate, caramel and licorice. Sweet hints of tobacco complete the impressive bouquet. The palate is rich, sophisticated, intense and is defined by supple vibrant tannins followed by along persistent finish.
