Tignanello 2018 Vintage Overview

2018 OVERVIEW

Antinori Tignanello 2018 marries vivid cherry and blackberry fruit with delicate floral tones, sweet spice and a touch of tobacco, all wrapped in a silk-smooth, medium-bodied frame. The cool, long 2018 season shows in its fine, polished tannins, bright acidity and remarkable purity, giving the wine a poised, focused finish that lingers with impressive length and finesse.

About Tignanello

Tignanello is Antinori’s iconic Super Tuscan red, sourced exclusively from the limestone- and marl-rich Tignanello vineyard in the heart of Chianti Classico and blending predominantly Sangiovese with small amounts of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. A pioneering wine that was among the first Sangiovese aged in barrique and made without white grapes in Chianti Classico, it typically shows ripe red and black fruit, spice, tobacco and balsamic notes wrapped in polished tannins, uniting Tuscan terroir with a modern, ageworthy style.
