Tasting notes
Wonderfully rich fruit on the nose. Leather, liquorice, dense and dark chocolate. This is only just beginning to open its eyes, but what beauty there is behind! Seriously impressive, and so well polished. It's the antithesis of something like Chateau Musar – very well coiffeured and wearing its best suit. Very impressive, and very claret-esque. (RH)

Antinori’s team did a fabulous job with the 2015 Solaia. Bold and supremely exotic to its core, the 2015 (magnum) possesses stunning richness from start to finish. Ripe red berry fruit, blood orange, mint and sweet spice all build as the 2015 shows off its considerable allure. The 2015 is a very young wine, but it is stunningly beautiful tonight.
Droolingly gorgeous nose: black cherry, leather, cinnamon, cocoa, plum. More Pauillac than Pauillac and more Napa than Napa. A really top example. There's a bit of heat on the finish that seems a little raw, but I suspect harmony will comes with age.
