Antinori : Solaia 2021
Toscana - Red Wine -Solaia 2021 is an anthology vintage of the great wine from the Italian house of Antinori. Produced in Tuscany on the Tignanello hills, it is a blend of 77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Sangiovese and 9% Cabernet Franc. Solaia is only produced in exceptional vintages, and 2021 is one of them! The vintage is rated 100/100 by Antonio Galloni of Vinous.
His tasting commentary aptly illustrates this Exceptional vintage: "One of the best vintages in Solaia's history, thanks to an almost perfect growing season in terms of weather conditions, with a slow pace during the most important phases that gave the wine complexity and elegance. Solaia 2021 already offers an exceptional expression of flavors and shows all the signs of a long and promising bottle ageing period."
Tasting notes:
The robe: intense and deep ruby red
The nose: intense notes of black fruits, aromas of blackberries, and blackcurrants with balsamic notes of fresh mint and myrtle. The bouquet is completed by refined spicy aromas of white pepper, roasted cinnamon and cocoa powder
The palate: rich and full; soft, velvety and vibrant tannins give a long finish and a lingering aftertaste where the toasted notes reappear and accentuate the finish
The advice of 12bouteilles: Serving between 16 ° C and 18 ° C, Solaia 2013 is delicious with roast chicken.
The Antinori wineries, directed by Piero Antinori, in the Chianti region are among the most famous wines of Tuscany. It is a dynasty of winemakers for 26 generations, the historic heart of the operation is the Palazzo Antinori in Florence. The Antinori family is a member of the Primum Familiae Vini, a group of the 12 best producers in the world, including the French, Perrin, Hugel, Mouton Rothschild, and Joseph Drouhin. The great wines of Antinori are Soleia, Tignanello, Badia a Passignano, Prunotto.
