The Antinori family have been producing wines in Tuscany for six centuries and exporting it for four; that's twenty-six generations of uninterrupted family ownership. The first recorded mention of the family dates back to 1188, when they worked in the silk trade. The family then moved to Florence in the early thirteenth century and today remain central figures in the fabric of the city; Piazza Antinori is the square in the historic centre where the family offices are located. Villa Antinori Chianti Classico Riserva is a blend of Sangiovese together with other complementary varieties produced as a tribute to Antinori’s historic label that has accompanied the family’s winemaking traditions over the years. The inauguration of the new winery Antinori nel Chianti Classico inspired the family to reinterpret this Tuscan classic into a premium quality wine with unmistakable style, the resulting Riserva is delicate, decisive and elegant.
