Antinori
View Full Description [+ Read More]
Marchesi Antinori is a Florentine winery with over six centuries of continuous family ownership, producing wines across Tuscany and beyond from estate vineyards in some of Italy's most significant appellations. The house's signature Tignanello, a Sangiovese-dominant blend with Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, pioneered the Super Tuscan category when it introduced non-traditional varietals and small French oak aging outside DOC rules in the early 1970s. Solaia inverts that formula, leading with Cabernet Sauvignon alongside Cabernet Franc and Sangiovese. Cervaro della Sala, sourced from Umbria, ferments Chardonnay with Grechetto in French oak. The Campo di Sasso Insoglio del Cinghiale and Santa Cristina Cabernet Sauvignon represent the more accessible tier, while Tignanello and Solaia anchor the estate's most acclaimed and age-worthy expressions.
