Tignanello 2009

The bottle that changed Italian wine forever, Tignanello is as modern and innovative as its first vintage many decades ago. Soft blackberry and cherry is backed by balanced spice, leather and toasted espresso. Those rich oak tones do a wonderful job of holding up the wine’s natural richness and velvety smoothness. Hold 10 years or more. Cellar Selection. Ranked #63 in the Wine Enthusiast Best of Year 2013. Score – 95. (Wine Enthusiast, Aug. 1, 2013)
