Reviews and Ratings

John rated this wine as 98/100
Alex & Priya - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Alex: The 2012 Tignanello is quite reticent at this stage, definitely needing more time to express itself. What is showing is a savoury, tomato leaf and thyme, rustic quality to the nose with sprinkles of cocoa over sour cherry, plum and orange rind. There is much more going on in the mouth, with bundles of firm tannin, savoury edges, and plush cherry-plum fruit. Full-bodied, with fine acidity, finishing on a rocky-herbal chord. A good mix of new and old school, and reliable if not outstanding at $100. Try it with a lamb stew. 91 pts

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
