Tignanello is made from a selection of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc then aged in barriques for about 12 months and an additional 12 months in the bottle. This was the first Sangiovese to be aged in barriques, the first red wine to be blended with non-traditional varieties and one of the first Chianti reds not to use white grapes.
Any oenophile should jump at the chance to enjoy a lovely evening hosted Alessia Botturi, the president of the North American Sommelier Association and renowned authority of Italian Wines,this exceptional menu is priced at $200 per person, all inclusive. Join Cuisineist Editor-In-Chief Elaine Harris and Wine Editor Scott Harris for what should be an incredible evening not to be forgotten.
