The 2009 Tignanello is quite beautiful. Cedar graphite sweet herbs licorice and leather add complexity to a core of highly expressive red fruits. The 2009 impresses for its energy drive and focus. Today the 2009 comes across as slightly understated relative to many recent vintages especially 2007 and 2008. There is a silkiness and polish that is reminiscent of the 2004. Tignanello is 75% Sangiovese 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc from vineyards in San Casciano Val di Pesa one of the most evocative hillsides in all of Italy.

Dried fruits and flowers on the nose. More roses than anything else. Full body with light toffee coffee and ginseng character. Light prunes too. Really enjoyable. A blend of Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon. Give it a year or two to soften.

Wine Spectator: 93 Points

Very elegant the 2009 represents the soul of Tignanello revealing red fruit and savory notes. Remains focused harmonious and long.?Non-blind Tignanello vertical (October 2019). Drink now through 2030.
