Antinori Solaia: Super-Tuscan Masterpiece from Marchesi Antinori
Antinori Solaia is one of the world’s most celebrated Super-Tuscans. Launched in 1978 by the historic Marchesi Antinori, this flagship blend—predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon with Sangiovese and Cabernet Franc—is sourced from the sunny, stony vineyards of Pritchard Hill–adjacent Tignanello. Known for its inky color, refined complexity, and rich layers of dark fruit, spice, herbal elegance, and finely textured tannins, it ages beautifully in new French oak to become a modern Italian icon.
