Vinous: 96 Points
The 2020 Tignanello is so primary so intensely fruit-driven that it almost tastes like a barrel sample. A burst of red Sangiovese fruit opens first followed by hints of blood orange cinnamon spice dried flowers and mocha develop later. Time in the glass brings out striking dimensions. In 2020 Tignanello is wonderfully sleek and racy with fine tannins that lie below a core of bright sculpted fruit. The balance here is just sublime. I can't wait to revisit the 2020 with age. "We are gradually increasing the Cabernet Franc in Tignanello to balance the greater richness that today's warmer seasons are giving to our Sangioveses" Antinori CEO Renzo Cotarella told me. - By Antonio Galloni on February 2023
