Tignanello was the first Sangiovese to be aged in barriques, the first contemporary red wine blended with untraditional varieties (specifically Cabernet) and one of the first red wines in the Chianti Classico region that didn't use white grapes. Tignanello is a milestone. It's produced with a selection of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.

More about the WineryReviews of Antinori Tignanello 2017
The Sangiovese had a very deep color. White flowers are perceived in this Antinori Tignanello. Astringent, rough taste.
We paired it with snacks and we really liked this Tuscany.
It was a gift for my brother and he enjoyed it very much.
It was just slightly past.
