Reviews
*James Suckling's #1 Italian Wine of the Year, 2018* The nose to this Solaia is truly phenomenal with currants, blackberries, roses and violets. So perfumed. Full-bodied and everything is in check and harmony with polished tannins that last for minutes. Purity and focus. Is it the greatest Solaia ever? So drinkable already, but this is a wine for ages ahead.

Antinori Solaia 2015
SOLAIA. (is that angels singing I hear?) You know the story of this wine, right? Fantastic Antinori property, sourced from the best parts of the Tignanello Estate (Solaia means “sunny one”). First vintage was 1978, the blend is roughly 75% Cabernet these days, and is one of the first great Super Tuscans, of course. Our price you ask? EXCELLENT...what else would you expect from your favorite online wine slingers!In a rockstar vintage like 2015, this is a MUST for serious collectors. The hype on this year's release is palpable and the market is gobbling up their allocations and demand is through the roof. Just read the reviews below! Wow! Needless to say, this is FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED...jump on it quick!
