Tenuta Tignanello is located in the heart of the Chianti Classico appellation, on the rolling hills between the Greve and Pesa valleys. The famed Tignanello vineyard, planted on land of Pliocene marine marl with limestone and schist, is planted with Sangiovese and Cabernet grape varieties. "This medium weight wine shows complex dark plum, toast, tar and cocoa notes, but there is also a decidedly sauvage element, and this gamy note won`t appeal to all tasters. Dense black-cherry, plum and licorice flavors, brisk acidity and full, ripe tannins round out the package. Has impressive qualities, but also controversial ones." Wine Enthusiast, 2001
Dark garnet with ruby highlights. Spicy oak notes on the nose. Plum fruit along with some light cabernet blackcurrant on the penetrating palate. Savory and elegant in flavor, with lovely ripe fruit; fresh and focused, with considerable finesse. Finishes long and silky.
