A classically powerful Riserva from Antinori, produced from the three family estates at Tignanello, Peppoli and Badia a Passignano. Aromas of violets and cherries are followed by tobacco and spice flavors from the wood, as well as concentrated black fruits. Rich and full-bodied, it should age well over the next 10 years. ——R.V.(8/1/2002)—— 92
