Tenuta Tignanello is located in the heart of the Chianti Classico, on the soft hills enclosed between the Greve and Pesa valleys and extends over 319 hectares of land, with about 130 hectares of vineyards. Among its vineyards, two treasures: the Tignanello vineyard and the Solaia vineyard that extend on the same hill, on land derived from Pliocene sea marls with limestone and shale, and enjoy warm days and cool nights during the growing season. Solaia and Tignanello are produced from the vineyards of the same name, which have been defined by the international press as 'amone of the most influential wines in Italian wine history'. According to the Marquis Antinori, they represent a continuous challenge and a never-ended passion. The vineyards of Tenuta Tignanello are mainly composed of the native Sangiovese and non-traditional varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.
