Parker about Solaia 2011
I'm not fully convinced by the 2011 Solaia. It is a hedonistic and heady expression for sure, but it doesn't come close to the 97 points I awarded the 2010 vintage. In fact, the bouquet here is very ripe with thick tones of strawberry and blackberry folded within tobacco, leather and sweet spice. Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese and Cabernet Franc offer flavors of rum cake and candied fruit. There's a good amount of tannic firmness surrounded by thick extract and fleshiness.
Suckling over Solaia 2011
Aromas of cherries and currants with hints of fresh rose petals. Full-bodied, very fruit-forward and flavorful. Long and rich. All about fruit and richness. Drink or hold.

Solaia 2011
The 2011 Solaia reveals itself as a fascinating fusion of the Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese, and Cabernet Franc grape varieties, which thrive in the renowned vineyards of the Antinori family. The bouquet presents a harmonious blend of dark fruits, captivating floral notes, and subtle hints of spice. These aromas unfold in a way that caresses the senses and promises a unique olfactory journey.
The palate is characterized by impressive structure and a silky mouthfeel. The ripe tannins are perfectly integrated and lend the wine a remarkable smoothness. Nuances of black cherries, cassis, and a hint of vanilla unfold in a wonderfully balanced interplay. The impressive length of the finish testifies to the exceptional quality of this wine.
