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 was originally produced in 1928 by Marchese Niccolò Antinori as a Chianti Classico that could age and that would improve over time. Soon after, Villa Antinori was found in the most prestigious cellars in embassies, royal houses, important hotels and restaurants. In 1931, Villa Antinori Bianco was made from traditional Trebbiano grapes. In the 1980’s a small percentage of Chardonnay was added in order to give the wine better structure.
