Description

2019 "Tignanello" Toscana IGT,  Marchesi Antinori

Marchesi Antinori:
Tignanello war der erste Sangiovese, der in Barrique verfeinert wurde, der erste moderne Rotwein, der sich aus nicht traditionellen Rebsorten (darunter Cabernet) zusammensetzt, und einer der ersten Rotweine aus dem Chianti, dem keine weißen Rebsorten hinzugesetzt wurden. Tignanello ist ein Meilenstein in der Geschichte des Weins. Der Wein wird aus einer Auswahl von Sangiovese-, Cabernet Sauvignon- und Cabernet Franc-Trauben hergestellt.

- Parker:
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. After this, the next vintage to watch is the highly anticipated 2021.
