THE WINE
Chianti Classico Riserva 'Marchese Antinori' by Antinori is a historic wine from the Antinori house which, since the 2011 vintage, has been produced with grapes from the Tignanello estate. It is composed almost entirely of Sangiovese grapes combined with a small amount of other complementary varieties. A wine that presents itself as the full expression of the quality and elegance of the Sangiovese of these areas.
The estate
Tignanello estate is located in the heart of Chianti Classico, on the soft hills enclosed between the Greve and Pesa valleys and covers 319 hectares of land, with about 130 hectares of vineyards. Among its vineyards, two treasures: the Tignanello vineyard and the Solaia vineyard which extend on the same hill, on land deriving from Pliocene marl with limestone and shale, and enjoy warm days and cool nights during the growing season. Solaia and Tignanello are produced from the vineyards of the same name, two wines capable of giving way to what is called the Renaissance of Italian wine.
The vineyards
Within the approximately 130 hectares of Tenuta Tignanello vineyard, divided into small parcels, there are two pearls: the Tignanello vineyard and the Solaia vineyard. The soil, of Pliocene origin with a skeleton rich in alberese and galestro, at an average height of 350-400 m a.s.l., and at the marked temperature range between day and night, give the grapes unique characteristics. The cultivated varieties include the indigenous Sangiovese and the non-traditional Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc which, in this place, are able to express themselves in an absolutely territorial way. There are also small parcels of Malvasia and Trebbiano for the production of Vinsanto and 37 hectares of olive grove.

Why increases in continuous experiments in the vineyards and cellars with selections of native and international clones of grapes, types of crops, vineyard altitudes, fermentation methods and temperatures, traditional and modern vinification techniques, different types of timber size and age of barrels , and varying the length of refining in the bottle.
