Antinori Tenuta Tignanello Riserva Chianti Classico 2020

A sleek, elegant red, with fine purity to the aromas of cherry, black currant, iron, olive and tobacco. Shows new oak on the palate, lending both spiciness and structure offset by ample fruit and texture. Ends with a balanced, complex finish. Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Best from 2026 through 2047. Highly Recommended. Ranked #7 in Wine Spectator’s Top 10 Wines of 2023. Score – 95. (Bruce Sanderson, winespectator.com, Oct. 31, 2023)
