Marchesi Antinori began investing in this area - one of the newest and most promising in Tuscany and all of Italy - in the early 1990s. At that time, Nobile di Montepulciano had just inaugurated its second Renaissance. But the wines of Montepulciano were, in fact, already famous then and long before that. Read more

Harvest On arrival at the winery, the grapes are destemmed and softly crushed.
Wine making The must was transferred to stainless steel tanks where alcoholic fermentation took place at a controlled temperature of 28 °C. Maceration lasted about 15 days and was managed with soft mechanical interventions aimed at extracting the aromatic component and sweet, non-astringent tannins.
Aging The wine was transferred into French oak barriques where malolactic fermentation took place first, in second-passage wood, followed by ageing for around 12 months in both new and second-passage wood.
