Tignanello 2021 Magnum...
Climate<br />The 2021 vintage from Chianti Classico will be remembered<br />for a long slow-paced season: a vintage that promises power and<br />finesse. Temperatures during the winter months were not<br />excessively cold and were accompanied by rain showers that<br />lasted up until the end of March. The beginning of spring<br />triggered early bud break, but cool, dry weather in April slowed<br />down the vines' vegetative cycle. May and June followed normal<br />weather patterns, not too hot, with scattered precipitation that<br />guaranteed excellent flowering and fruit set of all grape<br />varieties in Tenuta Tignanello's vineyards. Overall, summer<br />was hot and dry, especially during August but towards the end<br />of the month, occasional rainfall provided ideal conditions for<br />the vines to begin the ripening phase. September and October<br />were picture perfect: sunny skies, no heat spikes, refreshing<br />breezes and cool nighttime temperatures that allowed the<br />grapes to gradually progress to peak ripeness. Overall, the<br />2021 vintage is considered to be one of the best vintages ever.<br />Harvesting operations began during the last half of September<br />for Sangiovese and were completed October 20th with<br />Cabernet.<br />
