Solaia 1988

Solaia 1988 is a remarkable wine from the renowned Antinori winery in Tuscany, Italy. This vintage is considered one of the finest in Solaia's history and has received numerous awards.
The Solaia 1988 presents a deep ruby red color, indicating its maturity. On the nose, it unfolds a complex bouquet of ripe dark fruits such as blackcurrants, blackberries, and cherries. These fruit aromas are accompanied by notes of tobacco, cedarwood, spices, and a subtle mineral component.
On the palate, the Solaia 1988 is powerful yet smooth. It possesses excellent structure with silky tannins and well-integrated acidity. The dark fruit aromas continue, accompanied by nuances of chocolate, coffee, leather, and a subtle smokiness. The wine displays remarkable complexity and long-lasting persistence.
The Solaia 1988 is a blend of various grape varieties, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese, and Cabernet Franc. This blend gives the wine impressive complexity and harmonious balance.
Although the 1988 Solaia has already reached considerable maturity, it still has great potential for further development. With increasing bottle age, it will gain complexity and develop additional nuances.
