Description:
The 2011 Tignanello isan intense rubyred in color with purple highlights. The wine is ripe on the nose with notes
of dark fruitand with much underlying freshness on the aromatic finish; plum fruit dominates the aromatic gamut
along with cherries,and the aromas evolve with vigorand balance towards sensations of mintand liquorice. On the
palate, though stillyoung, the wine is readyand inviting, rich and harmonious; excellent the balance of the flavors
thanks to the tonic acidityand the solidityand suppleness of the tannins. The finish and aftertaste are rich and
savoryand are characterized byasweet persistence and length
Winery:
Marchesi Antinori
The Antinori family has been involved in the production of wine for over six centuries, ever since, in 1385, Giovanni di Piero Antinori entered as a member, the “Arte Fiorentina”, the Winemakers’ Guild of the city of Florence.
The Marchesi Antinori firm expresses its passion for viticulture by a constant search for even the smallest areas for quality improvement. For this reason, continuous experiments go forward both in the vineyards and in the cellars, seeking new clones of local and international grape varieties, experimenting cultivation techniques, vineyard altitudes, fermentation practices an temperatures, modern and traditional fermentation methods, different types of oak for aging and different sizes and age for the casks and barrels themselves, and different aging times before their commercial release for the bottled wines as well.
