Villa Antinori Bianco 0.75 2022
Villa Antinori is above all an idea, a plan that envisages the winemaking process: research and development on the one hand and historical heritage on the other. Villa Antinori is an important milestone as its name is associated with over 100 years of history. At the same time, this represents continuous progress.
The basic principle is continuous research for ever higher quality standards. This idea created two different wines that share a common passion for quality: the Villa Antinori Rosso and the Villa Antinori Bianco. Villa Antinori was originally produced in 1928 by Marchese Niccolò Antinori as a Chianti Classico, which can age and which will improve over time. Soon after,
Villa Antinori was discovered in the most prestigious cellars of embassies, royal houses, important hotels and restaurants. In 1931 Villa Antinori Bianco was produced from traditional Trebbiano grapes. In the 1980s, a small percentage of Chardonnay was added to give the wine better structure.
