Heiner Lobenberg über:
Solaia 2015

Lobenberg: Der Soalia zeigt ein wunderschönes Bukett von Erdbeeren, Pflaume, auch Cassis. Unter dieser süßliche reifen Frucht liegt eine Spur verführerisch würziger Noten. Auch am Gaumen pendelt der Solaia zwischen der feinen und so klar ausgedrückten Frucht und der würzig raffinierten Komponente.

Suckling über: Solaia

-- Suckling: The nose to this Solaia is truly phenomenal with currants, blackberries, roses and violets. So perfumed. Full-bodied and everything is in check and harmony with polished tannins that last for minutes. Purity and focus. Is it the greatest Solaia ever? So drinkable already, but this is a wine for ages ahead. 100/100

Parker über: Solaia

-- Parker: There is a magical infinity, a continuous loop of compatibilities, between the icon wines of Tuscany and the 2015 vintage. The stunning 2015 Solaia is solid evidence of this perfect alignment. This was a warm vintage that shows less favorably in my opinion in different parts of Italy and with other grapes that render their most elegant performances in the cooler vintages. I would put pure expressions of Nebbiolo and Sangiovese in this category. However, Tuscany and many of her great blended reds (made partially or fully with international grapes) operate according to a different logic. To me, their maximum expression comes when you can taste that Tuscan sunshine beaming from within. Its rays are brilliant and warm. They shine across the senses with opulence and intensity. The very name Solaia evokes the concept of sunshine and this unique Tuscan wine archetype I am referring to. With the 2015 vintage, Solaia is liquid sunshine not just in name but also in fact. The bouquet is immediately soft and sensual with dark fruit, spice and sweet tobacco. The mouthfeel shows intensity and power, but you don't get any heavy residue from the dry extract (measured at 33 grams per liter). Indeed, the wine feels glossy, tonic and fresh. It is composed of mostly Cabernet Sauvignon with Sangiovese and a tiny part Cabernet Franc. There is a bit of crunch or snap that comes thanks to the more acidity-prone Sangiovese grape (the wine measures 3.5 in pH). Finally, the tannins are beautifully sweet and ripe. This wine is meticulously executed, and the 2015 vintage lives up to an ideal of what we imagine Solaia to be. It will be released about a week after this review is published. Some 80,000 bottles were produced. 100/100

Falstaff über: Solaia

-- Falstaff: Funkelndes, tiefdunkles Rubinviolett. Kompakt und dicht in der Nase, viel dichte, saftige Ribisel, klar und präzise, dahinter feine würzige Noten. Sehr viel feinmaschiges Tannin, das sich in vielen Schichten öffnet, reife, dunkle Beerenfrucht, dazu feine salzige Komponenten, hat sehr gute Spannung, sehr langer Nachhall.

The Wine Independent über: Solaia

-- The Wine Independent: This 2015 Marchesi Antinori Solaia is so charmingly sweet, ripe, and open with very bright and exuberant aromas of cream and blackberries. My impression is that many 2015s in Tuscany in general have absorbed more oak than in some other vintages but this wine wears it so well. The palate is super-harmonious with a gentle ease and flow and the tannins are beautifully integrated and combine with subtle flavors of sweet oak-spice, cream, vanilla and blackberry. There is an elegant acidity and juicy freshness but in this wine the tannins take on a new dimension becoming seamlessly refined. Just beautiful!
