The Solengo is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, 15% Petit Verdot and 5% Sangiovese. The resultant wine combines the structure and elegance of Bordeaux varieties with the generosity of Tuscany and is always a charmer on release, with waves of rich plummy fruit, a lick of spice and wonderfully refined svelte tannins lending backbone and structure.

To reach its peak this always needs time in the cellar – fully mature, this wine lives up to the highest standards of SuperTuscans and is often reminiscent of a top-quality classed growth Bordeaux with a distinctive Italian accent.

What the critics say:

96/100Eric Guido, Vinous

"The 2019 Solengo seduces with its richly decadent display of vanilla and mocha-tinged dark fruits and spices, which are wonderfully lifted by minty herbal tones and white smoke. This enters the palate like weighted velvet, smooth and fleshy at first, yet lively, as mineral-tinged black currants mix with fine-grained tannins, clamping down with youthful poise. Like the proverbial iron fist in a velvet glove, this tapers off incredibly long and staining, with echoes of licorice beneath an air of cedar and tobacco; yet somehow, through it all, the palate is left watering for more. It will be many years before the 2019 is ready to show its best, but it will certainly be worth the wait. The Solengo is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Sangiovese that spends eighteen months refining in a combination of 60% new to 40% second-pass barriques."

96/100James Suckling

"This is very structured and linear with currants, blackberries, dried citrus, chocolate and some smokiness. It’s full-bodied, but very tight and structured. Flavorful finish. Try after 2024."
