Winemaker's Notes

Antinori Tignanello 2021 is a refined and captivating expression of Tuscany, renowned for its iconic blend of Sangiovese with a touch of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. On the nose, it reveals an intricate bouquet of dark cherries, blackberries, and ripe plum, enhanced by elegant notes of violet, spice, and hints of leather and tobacco. The palate is full-bodied and vibrant, with a core of rich, dark fruit flavors layered with nuances of espresso, dark chocolate, and earthy minerality. Firm yet polished tannins provide a balanced structure, while a lively acidity adds freshness and depth. The finish is long and graceful, leaving a lingering impression of fruit, spice, and a touch of toasted oak.

Critic Ratings

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate Review - Rated 98:

First made in 1971, this legendary Italian wine now celebrates its 50th birthday. Happy Birthday, Tignanello! The Marchesi Antinori 2021 Tignanello (made with 79% Sangiovese, 13% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Cabernet Franc) pulls on all the heartstrings. To be released in May, the wine shows a quintessentially pretty taste profile with tart fruit flavors, redcurrant, tea leaf, heritage rose, crushed white pepper, licorice, nutmeg, clove and chopped mint. It opens slowly to reveal more richness and exuberance with time, becoming downright voluptuous and heady a short while later. The through line, however, remains the bright freshness and minerality of Sangiovese. Compared to the 2018 vintage (which I also loved), this vintage has more overall fruit weight and volume.

Wine Spectator Review - Rated 97:

Laced with pure cherry, strawberry, graphite and tobacco aromas and flavors, this red is beautifully supported by a backbone of vibrant acidity and taut, refined tannins. Everything is framed by vanilla and toasty oak in the best sense, revealing harmony, with a long, orange-tinged finish.

James Suckling Review - Rated 96:

The currants and spices are very pretty, with some hazelnut undertones. Medium- to full-bodied with juicy tannins and a flavorful finish. Very structured for a Tignanello, with medium chewy tannins and a flavorful finish. Very polished and curated with a deft winemaking hand coming through.
