Tasting notes
The Antinori Tignanello 2022 is an iconic Supertuscan and a wine that combines ambition, elegance and depth at the highest level. In the glass it already shows a dense, luminous ruby red with garnet reflections, immediately signalling its class. On the nose it unfolds a multilayered and extremely precise aromatic profile: ripe cherries, dark plums and blackberries meet fine notes of violet. These are joined by nuances of cedarwood, tobacco, cocoa and a hint of sweet spices, which are typical of the Marchesi Antinori signature.
On the palate the Tignanello 2022 is powerful, yet remarkably elegant and clearly structured. The ripe fruit is present and juicy, but supported by a precise acidity and perfectly integrated, fine-grained tannins. Despite its intensity the wine never feels heavy, but convinces through balance, depth and finesse. The aromas continue to develop in layers and lead to a long, complex and extremely harmonious finish that lingers for a long time.
The Antinori Tignanello 2022 is a great red wine with excellent aging potential, offering an extraordinary tasting experience both on its own and with sophisticated dishes.
Grape Variety
Chenin Blanc is a widely cultivated, old white wine grape variety that has been grown in France (in Anjou – Touraine) since the 9th century. Compared to other white wine grape varieties, this variety is very productive. This leads to a very high quality of the white wine when reduced on the vine.
In South Africa, Chenin Blanc is the most widely grown white wine grape variety. The reason for this is primarily the very high diversity. For example, there are "wild-growing" vines (so-called Bush Vines) that are usually not irrigated. For this reason, the vines penetrate very deep into the ground with their roots to reach water. These Chenin Blancs therefore have a stronger depth and complexity.
The grape variety can also be aged very fresh and fruity in stainless steel tanks, developing into a very nice summer wine. Through the Aged in oak barrels, one obtains very complex and full-bodied white wines. The aromas of Chenin Blanc wines range from peach, apricot, and tropical fruits to honey and melon.
