Tignanello 2020 — Marchesi Antinori, Tuscany, Italy

Sangiovese 80% · Cabernet Sauvignon 15% · Cabernet Franc 5%

From the celebrated Tenuta Tignanello estate in the heart of Chianti Classico, the 2020 vintage continues the legacy of this groundbreaking Super Tuscan. A refined, structured and expressive wine that perfectly balances tradition with modern finesse.

Aroma
Elegant and pure, with lifted notes of wild cherry, blackberry, dried rose, and Mediterranean herbs, followed by layers of spice, cedar, graphite, and a touch of vanilla from aging in oak. A nose that evolves beautifully in the glass, both inviting and complex.

Palate
Medium to full-bodied with vibrant acidity and fine-grained tannins. The core of red and black fruit is supported by nuances of liquorice, leather, and crushed stone, leading to a long, mineral-driven finish. Poised and structured, with freshness at its core.

Structure & Aging
Aged for approximately 15 months in French and Hungarian oak barrels, partly new. The 2020 shows precision and restraint — a vintage marked by elegance rather than power. Approachable now, but best from 2025 onwards. Will cellar gracefully through 2040.

Why it matters
Tignanello 2020 is a masterclass in balance: expressive yet composed, rich yet refined. A wine that captures the essence of its terroir and the craftsmanship of one of Italy’s most iconic producers.
