Tignanello is made exclusively from the vineyard of the same name which is situated on limestone and tufaceous soil on the Tignanello. This was the first Sangiovese to be aged in barriques, the first modern red wine blended with non-traditional varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon. Tignanello is only made in the best vintage years, and therefore was not made in 1972, 1973,1974, 1976, 1984, 1992 and 2002.
