1990 Marchesi Antinori Solaia - Toscana IGT - 6 Bottles (0.75L)

Solaia represents the creative commitment of Giacomo Tachis with Piero Antinori. While Tignanello may have introduced the estate, Solaia has never been in its shadows. Essentially the mirror image of Tignanello, Solaia relies on Cabernet Sauvignon mixed with Sangiovese, but with a further addition of Cabernet Franc.

With a splendid, fat profile of cassis, herbs and minerals that is marked by delicious notes of tar and scorched earth, Solaia possesses the happy convergence of international grapes and terroir and Italian tradition.
