Villa Antinori was introduced in 1928 by Marchese Niccolò Antinori, father of Marchese Piero Antinori, as the first Chianti Classico that could age and that would improve over time. In 2001, Piero Antinori inaugurated a newer interpretation of Villa Antinori that is labeled with the appellation Toscana IGT (Indicazione Geografica Tipica) produced with the finest selection of grapes coming exclusively from farms owned in Tuscany. The label design has remained unchanged.

Tasting Notes
This complex white shows a straw yellow colour with greenish highlights. The nose, fruity and floral, offers much finesse and elegance with notes of bananas, pineapple, white flowers, and candied fruit. The palate is balanced with a good persistence and savoury mineral notes on the finish and aftertaste.
