Description

Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (95)

The 2004 Tignanello (85% Sangiovese, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc) presents a livelier shade of ruby along with fresher aromatics and flavors. Deeply expressive, it reveals black cherries, licorice, tar and sweet toasted oak on a linear, silky-textured frame of great class and elegance, showing outstanding presence on the palate and fine tannins to round out the finish.

Winespectator (98)

This is rich and still young, boasting cherry and strawberry fruit flavors along with savory and minerally elements. Beautifully balanced, complex and long on the finish.—Non-blind Tignanello vertical (October 2019). Drink now through 2032.

Falstaff (95)

Rich, deep dark ruby, broad, dark garnet rim. Rich, dark fruit on the nose, molasses, ripe plum, some dark forest honey, fine black cherry in the background. Still very compact, vivid tannin, unfolds fine-meshed, clearly already shows its maturity, salty.

Wine Enthusiast (95)

Ah, Tignanello, the father of all super Tuscans. A tried and true favorite, it is a Sangiovese-based wine cut with a small component of Cabernet for rich aromas of red fruit and spice. It is elegant, harmonious and long-lasting on the finish; drink after 2012.
