Tignanello Toscana Super Tuscan Blend

damn!

A truly lovely wine that is still young and needs time to open up, lovely nose, aromas of black currents, coffee, chocolate, sweet cedar, licorice, black cherries, big full rich body, with dry tannins, a multi layered texture and a long delicious finish. The wine needed more than an hour to open up and was still tight . My score 91, drink to 2024

is this heaven?

Great showing! Perfectly aged, with secondary aromas of fading flowers and dried sage, yet still vivid and bursting with life. Pretty stuff.

Clunky and unexciting. The concentration was great but something was just not adding up. #tignanello #antinori

Very funky nose at first blush but as it opened up it blew off and was quite nice.

Very ripe, fruity, flirty. Probably would have preferred the 06 Felsina Rancia.

Good but should have waited another 10 years to open.

It was good! 2006

I 💗 Tig & this 06 gets better & better 😍 For £70 paid now £115 it’s a special treat to pop one of these beauties 😎
