Rated 98/100 by Parker, the 2021 IGT Toscana Tignanello Red marks a historic moment, achieving its highest score since its debut vintage in 1971 (matching the 2018). This 50th-anniversary release is a benchmark wine that reaffirms Tignanello’s legendary status. Made predominantly from Sangiovese (79%) with Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, it delivers a refined bouquet of rose, white pepper, spices, and menthol. The palate is precise and taut, with exceptional balance, silky tannins, and a freshness that underscores its elegance. In a challenging vintage that tested even the best, this wine is a testament to the estate’s commitment to excellence, with Renzo Cotarella, the general manager, calling it one of their proudest achievements. Built to age, it promises decades of evolution.

A landmark achievement, the 2021 Red Bolgheri Sassicaia has been awarded 100/100 by Parker, reaffirming its place among the greatest wines in the world. Described as the "quintessence of Sassicaia and the essence of Cabernet," it impresses with its precision, elegance, and impeccable balance. There is no hint of overripeness here—just vibrant freshness, supported by firm yet velvety tannins that frame the wine with finesse and strength. The palate is powerful yet harmonious, with exceptional depth and a finish that lingers endlessly. Layered aromas of herbs, black fruit, spices, cigar box, and rose blend seamlessly, delivering an extraordinary expression of Cabernet. While tempting to enjoy now, this is a wine built to age gracefully for decades.
