Tignanello is a ‘Super Tuscan’ red wine first created in the 1970s by the prestigious wine producer Marchesi Antinori. Tignanello holds historical significance as the first in the region to blend Sangiovese with non-traditional international varieties and exclude white grapes. The Tuscan harvest of 1995 was modest in size, yet the fruit harvested was exceptionally rich and concentrated. Overall, the wines from this vintage were characterized by their richness, pronounced tannins, and well-balanced acidity.
