#5 in Wine Spectator's Top 10 Best Values of 2024

 

92 Points Wine Spectator

Cherry, pomegranate and plum aromas and flavors are the main themes in this dense red, punctuated with loam, spice, mineral and wild rosemary notes. Harmonious and solidly built, this picks up steam through the long, fruit- and savory-infused aftertaste. Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah. Best from 2027 through 2043.

 

Winemaker Notes

Villa Antinori 2021 is rubyred in color. The nose is intense, intriguing and presents fruity notes of black cherries and plum jam together with hints of boxwood, tobacco,and vanilla. The palate is mouth filling with supple,velvety tannins sustained by outstanding freshness and pleasant sapidity. The 2021 growing season began with rainy conditions during the winter months that provided excellent groundwater reserves in the vineyards.The end of spring and the summer months saw hot dry weather that allowed the vines to catch up to a normal pace and begin an optimal ripening phase. Ideal temperature swings between day and night, from mid-August up until harvesting, encouraged the development of an intriguing aromatic profile and ensured mature, perfectly healthy,and well-balanced fruit. The timing of the grape harvest was similar to 2020, picking began the second week of September with Merlot, continued with Syrah and Petit Verdot,and was completed with Sangiovese and Cabernet by mid-October.
