Parker about Tignanello 2020
Newly on the market now, the 2020 Tignanello shows a gorgeous bouquet with an upfront and accessible personality. Right off the bat, you get dark cherry, dried raspberry, spice, toasted almond and citrusy blood orange. The blend is normally 75% to 80% Sangiovese with 7% Cabernet Franc. The grape in between, making up 13% to 18%, is Cabernet Sauvignon. This vintage is very pretty and won't require a long wait. The tannins are sweet and silky. “Tignanello proves itself as a great vineyard site in both the challenging and the classic years,” says Managing Director Renzo Cotarella. Annual production falls between 300,000-350,000 bottles.

Tignanello 2020

Tignanello 2020 from Marchesi Antinori is an outstanding Super Tuscan wine that masterfully combines elegance, power, and complexity. This blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc boasts a deep ruby red color and captivates with its multifaceted aromas. Ripe red and dark fruits such as cherries, blackberries, and cassis unfold on the nose, accompanied by delicate floral notes, Mediterranean herbs, tobacco, graphite, and subtle spicy nuances. On the palate, the wine is powerful, with silky, well-integrated tannins and a precise, fresh acidity that lends it elegance and length. Aging in barriques ensures delicate toasted notes, vanilla, and dark chocolate, perfectly integrated into the fruit structure. The finish is long, complex, and characterized by a remarkable minerality. The 2020 vintage is already approachable, but possesses great aging potential and will continue to develop over many years. A fascinating Tignanello that underlines the excellence of this iconic wine.
