Note di degustazione
A deep, dense wine, the 2005 Solaia is still in its infant stage. The cool vintage produced slow-maturing wines. Nowhere is that more evident than in Solaia, a wine that retains exceptional freshness. Graphite, plum, smoke, licorice and menthol meld into the dark, brooding finish. In 2005, Solaia is a bit more refined than Tignanello, but both wines are impressive.

The 2005 Solaia is arguably the most complete of this flight of underrated vintages. Wines from cool years are rarely flattering when they are young, but often age gracefully, which is certainly the case here. The 2005 remains vibrant, fresh and capable of developing beautifully for another decade, perhaps longer. This is a bit of a dark horse vintage. I won't be surprised if the 2005 continues to develop positively in bottle.
Tasted blind. 20% Sangiovese Subtle colour. Sweet with some obvious but very smart oak on the nose. But then quite dry. Just a little drying on the finish. Not sure about the oak here. Pretty drying on the finish.
