Tignanello, Tuscany

Tignanello is no ordinary Tuscan — it was one of Italy's first wines to blend Sangiovese with international grape varieties, helping to coin the term "Super Tuscan." Antinori, one of Italy's oldest wineries with roots in the 14th century, harvests the vineyard of the same name as one of the last estates in the region, exclusively by hand and with strict selection.

In the glass, Tignanello shows dark cherry, blackberry, and tobacco, underscored by cedar wood and a hint of cocoa. The tannins are present but well-integrated — the result of 12 months of aging in new and used barriques, followed by another 12 months of bottle aging before release. The finish is long, spicy, and delivers on the promise of the nose.

At the table, it pairs well with braised wild boar, Bistecca alla Fiorentina, or aged Pecorino. Serving temperature: 17–18 °C. If you wish to decant it, give it at least an hour of air — the wine opens up significantly with time.

The Winery

Antinori

Marchesi Antinori from Florence is one of the oldest and most significant wineries in the world: Since 1385, the family has been continuously cultivating wine and still manages the company in its own hands today.

In 1971, together with oenologist Giacomo Tachis, Piero Antinori laid the foundation for a revolution when he created the Tignanello, the first Super Tuscan – a Sangiovese-Cabernet blend aged in barriques that permanently changed the wine world.

Today, Piero's daughters Albiera, Allegra, and Alessia steer the company, which owns around 1,200 hectares of vineyards in Tuscany, Umbria, Piedmont, Apulia, and California. Tradition and a bold spirit of innovation are not opposites at Antinori, but the foundation of every single bottle.
