Parker über Solaia 2001
The 2001 Solaia, far superior to the overrated 1997 (to which I also prefer the 1999 and 1994) is a classic example of central Tuscan Cabernet at its best, ruby-purple in color, warm and explosive in its expression of black currant fruit, tobacco, tar, and graphite, superbly concentrated and dense on the palate but balanced and shapely at the same time and with a noble austerity and grip on the finish which resembles the best of Bordeaux. The wine is a sure bet for another two decades of superb drinking.

Solaia 2001
Perhaps the 2015 and 2016 Solaia vintages will overtake the 2001 Solaia at some point. But currently we feel the 2001 Solaia as the best Solaia ever produced. A masterpiece that comes pretty close to perfection.
Recommendation Vintage Grapes Team:
Of course, a present tasting already offers great joy and an excellent meal accompaniment. To do this, we strongly recommend that you decant the wine for two to four hours to give it enough air.
The dry red wine consists of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Sangiovese and has an alcohol content of 13.5%.
Due to our extensive expertise and professional storage, you will always receive your wine in perfect condition. So you can decide without any worries whether you want to enjoy the wine immediately or in a few years.
Marchesi Antinori
Informationen zum Winzer:
Wine lovers prick up their ears at the graceful sound of the name "Antinori". Because hardly any other family has shaped Italian winemaking history as strongly as the noble family with its headquarters in Florence. For more than six centuries, the noble family has stood for premium quality drops of pleasure.
