Tignanello - 2020 - Toscana IGT
Deep ruby red.
The vibrant entry gives way to a caressing layered mouthfeel. The wine closes with spicy notes of pepper and licorice that merge with pleasant sensations of aromatic herbs for a fresh, lengthy finish.
With aromatic complexity and finesse, the notes of ripe red fruit especially cherries, strawberries, and blackberries are accompanied by delicate floral hints of violets, mallow blossoms, and roses. Its bouquet is completed with notes of roasted coffee and cocoa powder.
Fermentation in truncated conical tanks, and maceration on the skins for preserving the aromas and extracting the color. Once separated from the skins, the wine was transferred into small oak barrels where it underwent malolactic fermentation to accentuate aromatic finesse and complexity. Aging for 15 months in French and Hungarian oak barrels, partly new and partly second passage. An additional 12-month period of aging in the bottle before being released.
Tignanello was the first Sangiovese to be aged in barriques, the first contemporary red wine blended with untraditional varieties (specifically Cabernet) and one of the first red wines in the Chianti Classico region that didn’t use white grapes. Tignanello is a milestone. It’s produced with a selection of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.
