Antinori Tignanello 2018 2 x 75cl / 14.5%

This lot contains two bottles of 2018 Antinori Tignanello, a Tuscan blend of 80% Sangiovese, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc.

'This wine brought to mind precise imagery of tailcoats, striped dress pants, wingtip collar shirts and other gentlemen's fashion choices from the Roaring Twenties. Sporting a retro but classic personality, the Marchesi Antinori 2018 Tignanello is quite the dapper and jovial wine that hits the market just as much of the world is emerging from a dark chapter of lockdowns and coronavirus curfews. I love the optimism that springs bright with such clarity and detail from within this blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. The 2016 vintage was a benchmark for sure, but I prefer the 2018, thanks to that tinge of nostalgia or emotion that is so deftly rendered in this cool, long growing season. 98/100', The Wine Advocate
