ANTINORI |
| Deep intense purple colour. Attractive, intense, floral, violet-tinged, rose petal nose with some very gently spicy, ripe plum-black-cherry-cassis fruit along with sandalwood-cedar notes. Dry, medium plus bodied, harmonious, fairly extracty, intense, gently complex, ripe, plum, raspberry, black cherry flavours with a lingering, fairly elegant, bright, sandalwood-cedar-tinged finish. This blend of 90% Sangiovese and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon has 14% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number L4134 on the lower part of the glass bottle. It is fermented in stainless steel vats for seven days and then transferred to French and Hungarian oak barriques for approximately one year before it is bottled and aged for an additional twelve months. |

| TASTING NOTE: The 2022 Chianti Classico Riserva Marchese Antinori is terrific. Soft and pliant, with fabulous balance, the 2022 is a total charmer. Antinori's style today, one that favors a lighter hand than in the past, works so well here. Succulent red cherry, spice, new leather and rose petal are front and center. All of this fruit is from Antinori's Tignanello property. It captures all the essence of site in a more approachable style that is undeniably appealing. Drinking window: 2025-2034.
