Description
Tignanello 2020 IGT Toscana Antinori Jeroboam
Tignanello 2020 IGT Toscana Antinori in Jeroboam format represents one of the emblematic labels of contemporary Italian wine. Born from a historic vineyard of the Tenuta Tignanello, this red wine combines Tuscan identity, aromatic depth, and a refined style, built on Sangiovese with a small part of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. The result is a wine of great personality, capable of combining energy, elegance, and long evolution in the bottle.
Territory and wine style
Tignanello originates in the heart of Chianti Classico, from a vineyard exposed to the southwest located between 350 and 400 meters above sea level, on soils of limestone origin with tuff elements. This territorial combination helps define a tense, fine, and territorial profile, enriched by a modern interpretation achieved through the use of barrique and blending with international varieties. The 2020 vintage benefited from a balanced climatic trend, with regular ripening and careful harvesting, elements that are reflected in the expressive precision of the wine.
