96 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "Antinori's 2010 Tignanello is stunning, as it has been since I started tasting the component wines in 2011. Firm yet sweet, silky tannins form the backbone for this gorgeous, vivid wine. Dark red cherries, plums, cloves, mint and sage inform a Tignanello that impresses for its delineation, nuance and power. Clean, saline notes support the mineral-drenched finish. The 2010 isn't huge, but rather is a vertical wine endowed with tremendous energy and vibrancy. I can't remember a Tignanello with this much crystalline tension and pure energy. Simply put, the 2010 Tignanello is a magnificent, towering wine from Antinori. Drink: 2016-2030. (Aug 2013)"
96 points James Suckling: "One of the best Tignanellos ever made. Aromas of currants and blueberries with hints of flowers. Full body, with fine tannins and a refined finish. A red that delivers balance and beauty. Rich and gorgeous. Best Tignanello in years. Belnd of sangiovese and cabernet sauvignon. Better in 2015. (9/4/13)"
95 points Falstaff (2/13/15).
95 points/'Cellar Selection,' Wine Enthusiast: "Black berry, plum, red currant and cedar aromas take center stage in this fantastic vintage of one of Italy's most iconic wines. The structured, poised palate delivers a great depth of flavors that include succulent black cherry, cracked black pepper and mocha that are energized by a flinty mineral note. Smooth and balanced with polished tannins and fresh acidity, this is already delicious but hold for complexity. Drink 2015–2030. (May 2014)"
94 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "Humming with energy and life from the very moment you put your nose in the glass, Marchesi Antinori’s 2010 Tignanello shows magnificent aromatic layering and an enormous capacity to peel back and reveal itself in beautiful slow motion. This is an articulate wine with a long story to tell about the quality of its profound 2010 fruit. This Tignanello has the elegance of 2004 and the structure of 2007. A brief note on the structure: The mouthfeel here is not broad and big. Instead, it shows a sharp and elegantly streamlined feel with impressive persistency. Compared to 2009, the Sangiovese component is slightly higher with 80% of the noble Tuscan variety followed by 15% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2035. (Aug 2013)"
94 points Jane Anson (Decanter): "This is silky smooth with a succulent balance of featherweight tannins and deep black pepper-spiced blackberry and black cherry fruits. It's an excellent quality, powerhouse wine that is intense yet softly spoken. The 2010 vintage was a late-budding year and summer only really kicked in during July, after which the weather picked up and delivered beautifully ripe grapes. Drinking Window: 2019-2034. (Nov 2019)"
