Rezensionen & Bewertungen
97 Wine Spectator
Dark ruby red color. Currant, Christmas cake, mint and spices. Full-bodied, with ultrafine tannins and a long, long finish. This is balanced and refined. It's layered and beautiful. This is still tight and not giving much. A few more years will yield a lot. Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese.--1997 Italian blind retrospective. Best after 2009. 7,000 cases made. JS

Gorgeous. Shows alluring aromas and flavors of currants and raspberries with hints of balsamic and mint. Full and round in the mouth. So youthful still. Just a baby. Drink or hold.

Parker: The unfiltered 1997 Solaia (75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Sangiovese, and 5% Cabernet Franc, from a single 25-acre vineyard) is aged in 100% new French oak. There are 8,000 cases of the 1997. The sensational, opaque blue/purple-colored 1997 exhibits a complex nose of cedar, spice box, cassis, and subtle oak. With yields of only 30 hectoliters per hectare, and malolactic fermentation in barrel (a la Tignanello), this wine reveals extraordinary concentration, a thick, viscous texture, yet no sense of heaviness or ponderousness. It is a thrilling Solaia to consume over the next two decades. If a first-growth Pauillac were made in Tuscany, this would be it! Galloni: The 1997 Solaia is awesome. Sweet, open aromatics lead to a rich, full-bodied expression of dark cherries, plums, menthol and spices. This sensual, full-bodied wine remains youthful and full of life. The 1997 is a great Solaia. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2017.

Antinori - Tenuta Tignanello
Der Tignanello, für die meisten der ursprüngliche Super-Toskaner, wurde 1971 erschaffen und ist seitdem ein Verschnitt aus Cabernet Sauvignon und Sangiovese geblieben. Die 350 Hektar Grund liegen über die malerischen Hügel zwischen den Tälern der Flüsse Greve und Pesa verteilt, mit 147 Hektar in der Appellation Chianti Classico. Seit Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts bringt dieses legendäre Gut, mehr als jedes andere, die Werte der Familie zum Ausdruck: die Vereinigung von Tradition und Moderne in Form von Weinen, die unverfälscht und durch ihre Herkunft charakterisiert sind. Heute ist die herausragende Persönlichkeit des toskanischen Weins, Piero Antinori, der mit seinen Innovationen und Experimenten auf sich aufmerksam macht, Geschäftsführer der Marchesi Antinori Gruppe, zusammen mit seinen drei Töchtern. Aus Tignanello stammen zwei der einflussreichsten Weine, die je geschaffen wurden: das Flaggschiff der Familie, Solaia, und der erste Super-Toskaner, Tignanello. Diese beiden ikonischen Weine sind exemplarisch für die überragende Antinori-Qualität: temperamentvoll und doch komplex, und klar im Ausdruck ihres einzigartigen Terroirs.
