| | 2021 Antinori Solaia $1125 3-bottle-case
100 Points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous “Antinori's 2021 Solaia is another wine that captures all of the potential I sensed when I tasted it some months ago. More than anything else, the 2021 is a fine example of the style Antinori favors these days, an approach that favors finesse more than opulence. Dark plum, mocha, licorice, chocolate, spice, lavender and menthol build effortlessly in the glass. Oak and tannin are impeccably balanced. The 2021 spent 18 months in wood, three months in once-used barrels during the malolactic fermentation and then 15 months in 100% new barrels for the rest of its aging. 2027-2051.”
“All said and done, the Marchesi Antinori 2021 Solaia is a monument to perfect winemaking.”- Robert Parker, Wine Advocate

| | 2020 Antinori Solaia $1125 3-bottle-case Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Sangiovese
98 Points, James Suckling “Subtle and beautiful on the nose with currants, flowers and light sage aromas that follow through to a full body with ultra-fine tannins and a long and flavorful finish. Extremely polished and poised. Classy.”
This is a beauty, so generous and opulent with fully seamless transitions. |
| | 2020 Ornellaia Masseto $2625 3-bottle-case Merlot, Cabernet Franc
“The Petrus of Tuscany” ~ Masseto is one of the most celebrated wines in the world.
98 Points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous: “The 2020 Masseto is superb. Bright and vibrant in the glass, the 2020 offers up an exciting mix of dark-toned fruit, mocha, spice, leather, tobacco, cedar and a kiss of French oak. Lively acids and Franc aromatics lend vibrancy throughout. The Franc is so evident today. This is exceptionally polished and sophisticated, albeit a touch slender relative to most years. In 2020, Masseto is more finesse than power.”
