Description
95 Points - Falstaff. Solengo was the brainchild of the legendary winemaker and father of Super Tuscan wines, Giacomo Tachis. The first vintage was 1995 and is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Merlot, Sangiovese. The wines are aged in French barriques for twelve months and are blended just before the bottling. A long period in bottle follows before the finished Solengo is released. Solengo, by the way, means solitary wild boar in Tuscan, and describes perfectly the regal, powerful, self-confident beast that lurks within each delicious bottle. Wine Press Ratings 95 Points - Falstaff (2023 Vintage) "Dark ruby-red core with a delicate rim. Elegant and powerful on the nose, with fully ripe plum, juniper, ebony, and turmeric, as well as tobacco; very complex. Soft yet assertive on the palate, with plenty of fruit and chocolate, supported by fine-grained tannins; very well-balanced and long-lasting." Tasting Notes Notes of sour cherry jam and pepper leaves with hints of tobacco;
