Cellar
The Antinori have dedicated themselves to the art of wine-making for more than six hundred years: ever since Giovanni di Piero Antinori joined the Arte Fiorentina dei Vinattieri in 1385.
For 26 generations, the family has always directly managed this activity with innovative and sometimes courageous choices, but always maintaining unaltered respect for tradition and for the territory.
Every vintage, every soil, every idea is a new beginning, a new search for ever higher quality margins. As Marquis Piero likes to say: "ancient roots play an important role in our philosophy, but they have never inhibited our innovative spirit".
Description
Vino Nobile di Montepulciano from Marchesi Antinori's La Braccesca wine cellar is the result of blending the historic Sangiovese variety with a small proportion of Merlot in the best sub-zones of the denomination. This excellent wine has a distinct, balanced and elegant character.
Organoleptic characteristics:
The wine is ruby red in colour. On the nose, notes of fresh red fruit combine with pleasant hints of vanilla. On the palate it is well balanced, soft, characterised by silky tannins and good freshness. Long finish.
Storage time:
2-5 years
Vinification
approximately 10 days of maceration and transfer to large barrels, where malolactic fermentation takes place
