Villa Antinori Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG

With the inauguration of the new Chianti Classico cellars, the desire arose at Antinori to revive a historic label. The result is this unique Chianti Classico, which shows wonderful notes of red fruits, oak, and spices. The flagship of the Antinori family - pure Tuscany!

The berries are destemmed and gently pressed. Then the mash fermentation begins (max. temperature of 30 °C) with skin contact over 12 days to extract the soft tannins. The young wine is aged in various batches until the final blending took place in the spring of 2015. 60% of the wine was aged in wooden barrels; the rest in small French and Hungarian barriques, most of which had already been in use for 1 - 2 years. A small portion was aged in new barrels.

The Winery

Antinori

Marchesi Antinori from Florence is one of the oldest and most significant wineries in the world: Since 1385, the family has been continuously cultivating wine and still manages the company in its own hands today.

In 1971, together with oenologist Giacomo Tachis, Piero Antinori laid the foundation for a revolution when he created the Tignanello, the first Super Tuscan – a Sangiovese-Cabernet blend aged in barriques that permanently changed the wine world.

Today, Piero's daughters Albiera, Allegra, and Alessia steer the company, which owns around 1,200 hectares of vineyards in Tuscany, Umbria, Piedmont, Apulia, and California. Tradition and a bold spirit of innovation are not opposites at Antinori, but the foundation of every single bottle.
