Tenuta Tignanello & Solaia

Solaia is the flagship wine of Tenuta Tignanello, the historic estate of the Antinori family, located in the heart of the Chianti Classico hills in Tuscany. Today still managed by the Antinori family, the estate benefits from an exceptional terroir, situated at an altitude of 350 to 400 metres, with soils rich in limestone and schist.

Solaia is produced from an exceptional vineyard parcel on the estate, facing southwest. The name Solaia literally means “sunny place”. Its excellent exposure and natural drainage provide ideal conditions for the grapes to ripen slowly and fully.

The Antinori family, whose winemaking history dates back to 1385, has played a major role in the evolution of Italian wine. With Solaia, the family once again demonstrates its ability to combine Tuscan tradition with a modern vision, notably through the blend of Sangiovese with Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.

The first Solaia was produced in 1978, and the cuvée has since become one of the most sought-after and iconic wines of Tuscany.

Solaia embodies the entire philosophy of the Antinori family: an exceptional terroir, meticulous viticulture and a winemaking heritage passed down through more than six centuries of history.
