Solaia 1985 Antinori

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (95)

The 1985 Solaia continues to evolve at a quicker pace than the 1985 Sassicaia. A huge nose of olives, toast, cedar, and cassis offers considerable enjoyment. In the mouth, this dark ruby/purple-colored, opulent wine exhibits a rich, medium to full-bodied, chewy texture, decent acidity, and well-integrated flavors of smoky new oak. The finish is supple and long as the tannins have quickly melted away.

This is charged with ripe fruit flavors. Deep colors, powerful aromas and flavors of berries and mint. Full body, velvety tannins and impressive, flavorful finish.
