Solaia 2011 - 1.5 Litre Bottle

Product description

The 2011 Solaia Magnum from Marchesi Antinori is a celebrated wine from Tuscany's Toscana IGT appellation. It consists primarily of Cabernet Sauvignon, blended with smaller amounts of Sangiovese and Cabernet Franc, reflecting the estate’s approach to "Super Tuscan" winemaking. The 2011 vintage, shaped by a warm growing season, showcases both power and elegance, balancing ripe fruit with structure.

Colour: Deep ruby, with hints of purple at the edges.
Aroma: Complex nose with blackcurrant, cherry, mint, and walnut, evolving to include subtle notes of espresso, chocolate, and herbs.
Palate: Rich and layered, featuring dark fruits and earthy undertones, complemented by polished tannins. The wine reveals excellent depth and a smooth, dense texture.
Body: Full-bodied with firm but refined tannins.
Finish: Long and satisfying, with lingering notes of ripe fruit and spice.

Accolades:

  • 96 Points – James Suckling
  • 97 Points – Falstaff

This vintage benefited from Antinori's ability to adapt to the warm conditions of 2011, delivering a wine that is both approachable now and suitable for aging. With an alcohol content around 14%, it pairs beautifully with grilled meats, aged cheeses, or hearty pasta dishes. Though it is drinking well now, this wine will continue to evolve over the next decade, reaching its peak between 2025 and 2035.
