Soft and open-knit with lovely, forward fruit and bright acids, the 2023 is a total delight. Floral, spice and blood orange overtones meld into a core of red Sangiovese-driven fruit. There's a touch more Cabernet Franc in this year's blend. That comes through in the wine's aromatic presence. The 2023 is a juicy, midweight Tignanello that offers tons of immediacy and sheer appeal. It's finesse over power. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\"\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003e2023 Marchesi Antinori Tignanello Toscana IGT\u003c\/strong\u003e is a particularly polished, energetic rendition of one of Italy’s landmark wines. Produced exclusively from the 77-hectare Tignanello vineyard in the heart of Chianti Classico, it is predominantly \u003cstrong\u003eSangiovese with Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc\u003c\/strong\u003e, grown on limestone-rich alberese and galestro soils. The wine spent \u003cstrong\u003e13 months in predominantly new French oak, with a small amount of Hungarian oak\u003c\/strong\u003e, followed by another year in bottle. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2023 growing season ultimately delivered excellent ripeness without excessive heat, and that shows in a wine that feels \u003cstrong\u003emore vibrant and precise than simply powerful\u003c\/strong\u003e. Ripe cherry and pomegranate lead into blood orange, cranberry and violet, with layers of graphite, cocoa, white pepper and toasted hazelnut. The palate is juicy and beautifully composed, with \u003cstrong\u003esilky, supple tannins, bright Sangiovese acidity and a long, savory, citrus-tinged finish\u003c\/strong\u003e. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat I particularly like about the description of the \u003cstrong\u003e2023\u003c\/strong\u003e is the tension between its Tuscan soul and its polished Super-Tuscan stature. The Cabernet provides depth and structure, but it doesn't bury the Sangiovese—the wine remains lifted, savory and distinctly Italian rather than becoming a generic international-style red.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SOUTHERN WINE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51659055661362,"sku":"42000000002069","price":184.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0044\/7165\/2425\/files\/tignanello-ver2.png?v=1727838882","url":"https:\/\/www.vintagewinemerchants.com\/products\/2023-marchesi-antinori-tignanello-toscana-igt","provider":"Vintage Wine Merchants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
