TIGNANELLO 1998
Tignanello--Vintage 1998
Tuscany. Estate-bottled: Antinori
Offered in carton
Tasting note: There are 30,000 cases of the 1998 Tignanello, a blend of 80 Sangiovese, 15 Cabernet Sauvignon, and 5 Cabernet Franc. It offers a classic bouquet of berry fruit, new saddle leather, underbrush, earth, and toast from its new-barrique aging. Medium to full-bodied, with more tannin than the plusher, opulent 1997, good delineation, and a firm, classic style, it requires 2-3 years of cellaring and should drink well for 15-16. Note 91.
