Chianti Classico Riserva 2019, Marchese Antinori, Magnum 1.5 L

Marchese Antinori – Six Centuries of Tuscan Nobility in a Bottle

The Antinori family has been synonymous with Italian wine excellence for over 26 generations, with roots tracing back to 1385 when Giovanni di Piero Antinori joined the Florentine Winemakers’ Guild. Today, the Marchesi Antinori estate remains one of the oldest and most prestigious family-owned wineries in the world, celebrated for its pioneering spirit and deep connection to Tuscany’s Chianti Classico region.

At the heart of the Antinori legacy is a profound respect for tradition, balanced with a drive for innovation. The family was among the first to experiment with non-native grape varieties and modern winemaking techniques in Tuscany—ultimately helping to define the Super Tuscan movement. Yet, it is their devotion to Chianti Classico that continues to shine as a timeless symbol of quality and elegance.

Marchese Antinori – Chianti Classico Riserva

Crafted from grapes grown on the Tignanello estate, in the heart of the Chianti Classico region, the Marchese Antinori Chianti Classico Riserva is a sophisticated and refined expression of Tuscan terroir. This wine represents the Antinori family’s commitment to preserving the identity of Sangiovese, the region’s noble grape, while elevating it with meticulous vineyard selection and aging techniques.

The blend is typically composed of 90% Sangiovese, with small additions of Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot, depending on the vintage. It undergoes fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, followed by aging in French and Hungarian oak barrels for about a year, and additional bottle refinement before release.

The result is a wine that offers aromatic complexity, with notes of ripe cherries, blackberries, spices, leather, and subtle tobacco. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and silky, with well-integrated tannins and a long, elegant finish—a perfect balance between structure and finesse, tradition and modernity.
