Reviews:
Wine Advocate: The 1993 Tignanello reveals gorgeous notes of cedar, tobacco and sweet herbs that waft from the glass, along with slight notes of oxidation that are also present. This is a medium-bodied Tignanello and at this point the wine’s structural components appear to be dominating over the fading fruit in the wine’s balance. Despite its slender personality, this is a delicate, elegant wine, but it is best enjoyed sooner rather than later.
Tom Cannavan: 1993 is not a particularly special vintage in Tuscany, but this shows just how well Tignanello can age, with a smoky, cedary nose, and rounded chunky fruit. There was something intrinsically Italian about it, quite unlike many of the more modern Super-Tuscans.
