I'vd had The Mascot 2018 a number of occasions. The wine is simply "Fantastic." It is delicate yet bold with red fruit characteristics. Yet you find this simplicity about it, delicate and soft to the palate.

Antinori 2021 Tignanello Toscana IGT – Tuscany, Italy
98 Points Vinous • 97 Points Wine Spectator • 96 Points James Suckling
#3 Wine Spectator Top 100 Wines of 2024
The Antinori 2021 Tignanello Toscana IGT is an extraordinary Super Tuscan red wine from the legendary Marchesi Antinori estate in Tuscany, Italy. Ranked #3 on Wine Spectator's Top 100 Wines of 2024, this exceptional vintage represents one of the finest expressions of Tignanello, combining remarkable elegance, concentration and aging potential. Produced from the historic Tignanello Vineyard in the heart of Chianti Classico, this iconic wine showcases the sophistication and distinctive Tuscan character that have made Tignanello one of Italy's most celebrated and collectible wines.
The outstanding 2021 vintage opens with captivating aromas of ripe cherry, wild strawberry, blackcurrant, blood orange and sweet spice, complemented by layers of cedar, graphite, tobacco and toasted hazelnut. The palate is beautifully concentrated yet remarkably refined, delivering vibrant red and dark fruit, subtle vanilla and elegant oak spice. Silky, polished tannins and lively acidity create exceptional harmony, leading to a long, sophisticated finish with lingering citrus, mineral complexity and remarkable depth.
Crafted from a classic blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, the 2021 Tignanello reflects Antinori's pioneering approach to Super Tuscan winemaking. Aged for 17 months in oak, including time in neutral barrels during malolactic fermentation followed by maturation in barrels with approximately 50% new oak, the wine achieves outstanding balance between fruit purity, structure and complexity. With exceptional critical acclaim and a prestigious Wine Spectator Top 100 ranking, the 2021 Tignanello is an outstanding choice for collectors and enthusiasts seeking a truly age-worthy Italian red.
