Craftsmanship of Tenuta Tignanello
The grapes for this wine are carefully harvested and selected by hand. After gentle pressing, the wine undergoes fermentation in tapered oak barrels, followed by approximately 14-16 months of aging in French and Hungarian oak barriques. After bottling, the wine rests for another 12 months in bottle before release, adding to its harmonious character.
