Description
This six-bottle set boasts some serious press for some seriously great Italian wine from one of Italy’s premier producers - Antinori. You won't find a savings this big anywhere else!Includes:
- Antinori 2011 Pian Delle Vigne Brunello Di Montalcino - 94 points James Suckling
"A soft and silky 2011 Brunello showing richness yet balance and freshness at the same time. Full body and round textured. Fine velvet mouth feel. Plenty of complex berry and light hazelnut character" - Two bottles of Antinori 2013 Chianti Classico Peppoli - 92 points James Suckling
"Some dried fruit with strawberry and lemon rind on the nose and palate. Medium to full body. Tangy tannins. Pèppoli is always excellent." - Antinori 2014 Guado al Tasso Il Bruciato - 90 points Wilfred Wong of Wine.com
"An admirable example of a New World blend from an Old World producer. The 2014 Antinori Guado al Tasso Il Bruciato does a first-rate job of combining Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot-with a little bit of Syrah. This wine exhibits dark fruits, black tea, and savory spices. Its firm palate pairs it nicely with roasted rack of lamb." - Antinori 2011 Villa Antinori Chianti Classico Riserva - 91 points Wine Enthusiast
"This delicious wine opens with aromas of violet, iris, underbrush, black fruit and cinnamon-spice notes. The concentrated palate delivers a solid core of rich black cherry accented with notes of black pepper and Mediterranean herbs alongside firm tannins that carry on to the finish." - Antinori 2013 Villa Toscana - 91 points James Suckling
"A silky and delicious red with tile, berry and walnut aromas and flavors. Medium body, firm tannins and a fresh and clean finish. Linear and structured. Affordable quality Super Tuscan."
