Marchese Antinori Riserva 2020

Tenuta Tignanello (Antinori)

Case Format: 6x75cl

This Antinori family’s historic label, since the 2011 vintage Marchese Antinori has been produced with grapes exclusively from the Tignanello vineyard. It’s made almost entirely with Sangiovese with a small percentage of other complementary varieties. A wine that fully expresses the quality and elegance of Sangiovese grapes grown in this area.

Handpicked from the estate’s calcerous-rich vineyards, the wine is then aged in oak for 12 months, and once again in bottle for a further 12 months ahead of release. The end result is a full-bodied wine that is brimming with flavours and aromas of cherry, juicy red fruit, warm vanilla and spices. With fine yet firm tannins and a smooth, persistent finish, this is a beautiful wine that can be both enjoyed early and cellared for years to come.

Created by one of the most famous winemaking families in the word, Antinori have been at the helm of Tuscan viticulture for over six centuries. Today they continue to uphold their reputation through the creation of a broad yet stunning portfolio of wines.

CRITIC REVIEWS

Jeb Dunnuck

Produced from vines of the Tenuta Tignanello estate, the 2020 Chianti Classico Riserva offers a flashier and riper style with notes of Marasca cherry liqueur, polished leather, toasted vanilla bean, and licorice candy. It is full bodied without being heavy and is rich with plum, cedar, sage, and potting soil. Raised in a combination of French and Hungarian oak barrels for approximately one year, the oak imprint is certainly felt but is very well managed, and the wine wears it well. 5,000 cases imported. Drink 2025-2040

James Suckling

This is like a Brunello in its structure with excellent length. Racy and focused. Aromas of violets and dried flowers with hints of bark and dark cherries. Medium-bodied with very fine tannins and a gorgeous finish. One for now or the cellar. Drinkable but better after 2026
