Reviews
Floral, mint and medicinal herb aromas introduce this rich, black currant–infused red. Firm and compact, with vibrant structure, youthful harmony and a lingering, fruit-, herb- and spice-tinged finish. Shows terrific balance and length, with the best yet to come. (BS) (12/2018)

Antinori Solaia 2015 (Double Magnum 3L)
“There is a magical infinity, a continuous loop of compatibilities, between the icon wines of Tuscany and the 2015 vintage. The stunning 2015 Solaia is solid evidence of this perfect alignment.” -- WA/JS100
SOLAIA. (is that angels singing I hear?)
On the heels of the truly astounding 2015 Sassicaia comes the unquestionably brilliant Solaia. 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? The BEST ANYWHERE...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! We are lucky to have a FEW magnums and even one 3 LITER! Needless to say, this is FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED...jump on it quick!
