Tenuta Tignanello Marchese Antinori Chianti Classico Reserva. Italy
The Antinori family have been producing wine in Tuscany for uninterrupted six centuries, and exporting it for four. The purchase of the Tignanello estate in 1900 marked the beginning of a remarkable period of expansion which shows no signs of abating. Through judicious acquisition of vineyards and an uncanny knack for developing iconic wines, Antinori has become Tuscany’s – arguably Italy’s preeminent wine producer, with an important presence in Piedmont, Lombardy, Umbria and Puglia as well as their Tuscan heartland.

Tasting Notes
Spicy hints of cinnamon and cloves, alongside oaky and piquant peppery aromas. A rounded, creamy, sweet and well-balanced palate is followed by an aftertaste of incense, balsamic notes and cherry.
Marchese Antinori is produced exclusively from specially selected grapes grown on three of Antinori’s estates in Chianti Classico: Tignanello, Badia a Passignano and Pèppoli.
