Tignanello, produced by the Antinori winery, is a still red wine that enjoys the Tuscan IGT designation. It is an unconventional wine, considering that it was the first to be blended using non-traditional methods, without the inclusion of white grapes. The grapes come from vines that are 85% Sangiovese, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 5% Cabernet Franc. Careful climatic conditions are required for all three varieties during the harvest. Fermentation takes place at a temperature of around 27 degrees Celsius, never rising above 31 degrees, so as to preserve the organoleptic properties of the three grapes. The fermentation is initially alcoholic, after which the wines are placed in new oak barrels, where a second malolactic fermentation takes place to reduce acidity. Aging takes place in barriques for 12 months. After this period, the wine is bottled, where it rests for another year. Tignanello is born in Tuscany, more precisely in the vineyard of the same name, located on the Tigneto estate at an altitude of between 350 and 400 meters, covering an area of over 47 hectares. The soil is calcareous in origin, with numerous tuffaceous components, which contribute to giving the wine its unique characteristics, including its longevity (approximately 25 years). The validity of Tignanello wine has also been recognized by Bibenda and Gambero Rosso, who awarded it 5 bunches and three glasses respectively, synonymous with wine excellence.
