THE WINE
Toscana Rosso 'Tignanello' by Antinori is a real myth, a red that has made the history of Italian wine. The first Sangiovese to be aged in barrique, the first modern wine assembled with non-traditional varieties, among the first Chianti reds not to include white grapes in its assembly. A milestone that year after year continues to amaze fans all over the world. Produced from a careful selection of Sangiovese, over 80%, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, after aging in barrique for about 12 months, it rests in the bottle for a further year of aging.
The estate
Tignanello estate is located in the heart of Chianti Classico, on the soft hills enclosed between the Greve and Pesa valleys and covers 319 hectares of land, with about 130 hectares of vineyards. Among its vineyards, two treasures: the Tignanello vineyard and the Solaia vineyard which extend on the same hill, on land deriving from Pliocene marl with limestone and shale, and enjoy warm days and cool nights during the growing season. Solaia and Tignanello are produced from the vineyards of the same name, two wines capable of giving way to what is called the Renaissance of Italian wine.
The vineyards
Within the approximately 130 hectares of Tenuta Tignanello vineyard, divided into small parcels, there are two pearls: the Tignanello vineyard and the Solaia vineyard. The soil, of Pliocene origin with a skeleton rich in alberese and galestro, at an average height of 350-400 m a.s.l., and at the marked temperature range between day and night, give the grapes unique characteristics. The cultivated varieties include the indigenous Sangiovese and the non-traditional Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc which, in this place, are able to express themselves in an absolutely territorial way. There are also small parcels of Malvasia and Trebbiano for the production of Vinsanto and 37 hectares of olive grove.
