Parker about Tignanello Magnum 2019
The Marchesi Antinori 2019 Tignanello was born in a classic growing season that saw some cooling summer rains and relatively stress-free conditions. This is an elegant and extremely polished wine made with mostly Sangiovese and smaller parts Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. Here too, the small blending element of Cabernet Franc has been slowly increasing in recent years. The 2019 vintage was born with a good amount of power and tannic structure, and maceration times were slightly reduced as a result. This less extractive approach shapes a polished and elegant wine with plenty of bright berry fruit, cherry, dried mint, blue flower, blood orange and rusty earth. The palace is more compact and streamlined. It shows beautiful grace. After this, the next vintage to watch is the highly anticipated 2021.

Tignanello Magnum 2019

Tignanello 2019 from Marchesi Antinori is an outstanding Super Tuscan wine that perfectly combines power, elegance, and finesse. This blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc is deep ruby red in color and reveals intense aromas of ripe cherries, dark berries, cassis, and plums on the nose, accompanied by subtle notes of violets, Mediterranean herbs, tobacco, and delicate spice. On the palate, the wine presents itself with impressive structure, silky, well-integrated tannins, and lively acidity, lending it freshness and elegance. Aging in barriques ensures a subtle, perfectly integrated oak presence with hints of vanilla and chocolate. The finish is long, complex, and characterized by mineral and balsamic notes. 2019 was an excellent year in Tuscany, giving the Tignanello exceptional balance and enormous aging potential. A wine that already offers great drinking pleasure, but will continue to develop over the next decades.
