CRITIC REVIEWS
Aldo Fiordelli
The 2020 is probably not the best ever vintage of Solaia, but in the glass it shines. The wine is dark and concentrated, with restrained cassis mingling with leafy, flowery notes and the clove aroma of the 100% new French oak. Very youthful at the moment, it deserves more time to develop more complexity, but the attack is already soft and velvety, with tannins developing volume on the mid-palate, then a toasty tobacco finish. Fresh acidity is typical of the Chianti Classico region as well as the contribution of Sangiovese. Powerful, graceful and energetic.
James Suckling
Subtle and beautiful on the nose with currants, flowers and light sage aromas that follow through to a full body with ultra-fine tannins and a long and flavorful finish. Extremely polished and poised. Classy. Best after 2028.
