2006 Antinori Tignanello Toscana
94pts (WE)93pts(WS)92pts(WA)
94pts (WE) Thanks to its excellent quality and universal appeal, you can count on
Tignanello to make an excellent impression with any elegant meal. Based
on Sangiovese, with a small percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon, the wine
delivers an interesting power play that pits cherry fruit against
vibrant spice. It is tight and firm in the mouth with a slightly sweet
or soft note on the close. Wine Enthusiast - March 01, 2010
93pts(WS)Intense aromas of ripe blackberry and
flowers, with rosemary and coffee hints. Full-bodied, with chewy,
polished tannins. Excellent fruit concentration and a flavorful
aftertaste. Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. Best
after 2012. 29,165 cases made. –James Suckling Wine Spectator October 31, 2009
92pts(WA) The 2006 Tignanello is especially opulent in this vintage. Masses of
dark red fruit, scorched earth and sweet oak emerge as this
richly-textured Tignanello flows from the glass. The wine possesses
superb density; all it needs is another few years to come together.
Today it is remarkably vibrant and primary. Tignanello is 85%
Sangiovese, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc. Anticipated
maturity: 2014-2024.
From top to bottom this is a beautiful set
of wines from Antinori. The estate’s 2006 Guado al Tasso, Tignanello
and Solaia are all beautiful, even if they don’t appear to possess the
elegance of the superb 2004s. Antonio Galloni Wine Advocate # 184 Aug 2009
