WA 92

ANTINORI TIGNANELLO TOSCANA IGT 2004 (3)

Tuscany.

Pale ruby colour. Subtle, slightly closed aromas of red cherry, raspberry, violets, mocha and cinnamon on the nose. The medium bodied palate provides a great intensity of cherry, spice and tea flavours balanced by crisp acidity. Medium to firm, grainy, very fine tannins and a long, long finish. Young. Drink 2010 – 2020+ WS 95 WA 94

ANTINORI TIGNANELLO TOSCANA IGT 2005 (2)

Tuscany.
2 x wrinkled labels

There is notable clarity and precision in the wine’s red fruit, smoke, minerals, tobacco and spices. The signature Tignanello elegance is there, the only question is whether there is enough sheer density to stand up to the wine’s structural components. Today my impression is that there is not, but I still have high expectations for this vintage considering how wines from far lesser years have developed. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2020. WS 92 WA 92

5 bts. & 1 mag.    per lot $1,200 - $1,400
