Antinori's 2007 Tignanello is wonderfully ripe and seductive in its dark cherries, flowers, spices, tobacco, sage, cedar, mint and minerals. This is as opulent a Tignanello as I have ever tasted but there is just enough acidity and structure from the Sangiovese to keep things from going over the top. The wine's richness and warmth are such that in a blind tasting I mistook the 2007 Tignanello for a wine from Maremma! The dense, muscular fruit follows through to an impeccable finish with no hard edges and impossibly fine, silky tannins. Simply put, the 2007 is a magnificent Tignanello...

A youthful Tig drinks as well young as any super Tuscan out there....but with some bottle age this is in a really sexy spot. Happy Friday wine people.

07- right in its middle age. A kaleidoscope of dark fruits both fresh and dried. Rum, brown spices, walnut husk and cherry cola. Tannins resolving. Length very good.

Amazing structure. Some floral red fruit on the nose, then a wonderfully structured dark chocolate and cocoa notes. Ripper super-Tuscan!

Lucky enough to try the '07 and '08 side by side last night...splitting hairs when picking a favorite. Ton of sediment from the '07 and a dominant nose and flavor of cigar box, plum and cedar.

A cellar mainstay! Never disappoints! Already drinking very well, but still showing some youthful power. Give this another year and it should be a stunner! #Antinori #Tignanello #Toscana
