Information
About the producer

Antinori. This true Italian dynasty had been producing wine since 1385.
The family which can trace its history back to 1179 when Accarisio di Antinoro bought land from the Abbey of Passignano. Badia a Passignano is still one of a number of domains found in the group today which is spread out over Tuscany, Umbria, Piedmont, Lombardy, Puglia and even outside of Italy.
In the 1960s and 1970s, the family participated in the Super Tuscan revolution – wine for ageing made in the style of the great Bordeaux. Today, after 26 generations, the story continues with Albiera Antinori who is supported by his sisters, Allegra et Alessia, following their father, Marchese Piero Antinori.
The Italian domains are: TENUTA TIGNANELLO, BADIA A PASSIGNANO, PèPPOLI, ANTINORI NEL CHIANTI CLASSICO, PIAN DELLE VIGNE, TENUTA GUADO AL TASSO, CASTELLO DELLA SALA, MARCHESE ANTINORI – TENUTA MONTENISA, VILLA ANTINORI. The family also has vines outside of Italy in Chili, USA, Hungary, Romania and Malta.

About the wine

This wine is only produced from the best vintages using a selection of the best grapes from vineyards in Tignanello, Badia a Passignano, Peppoli. Following malolactic fermentation carried out in barrels, ageing in barrels lasts 14 months. Blended and bottled, the wine is then left to rest for 12 months before being sold. This is a rich wine with fantastic depth of colour, featuring intense notes of red berries from its earliest stages. It develops wonderfully over time, and can be aged for 10 to 20 years. Its smooth, elegant tannins meld beautifully with an expressive texture that is subtly enhanced by barrel ageing. Its finish is very persistent.
