Caldesi Collection
White
95% Chardonnay, 5% Grechetto
This is Marchesi Antinori's top white wine. Cervaro della Sala was one of the first Italian white wines to have both malolactic fermentation and ageing take place in barriques displaying elegance and complexity of this unique estate.
100% Sauvignon Blanc
Matured on the lees for nine months partly in large wooden barrels (50%) and partly in stainless steel tanks (50%), the Quartz cuvée is one of Italy's top Sauvignon Blancs. It reveals mineral notes of flint combined with a hint of gooseberry.
25% Chardonnay, 25% Sauvignon Blanc, 23% Malvasia, 22% Ribolla Gialla
"Vintage Tunina" has been one of Italy's style-defining cuvées. This is an elegant white wine with a sense of finesse, hints of tropical fruit, delicate herbal spice and ripe yellow fruit.
100% Fiano
Antinori family-owned estate at Minervino Murge in Castel del Monte with around 140ha of vineyards on chalky clay soils. Medium-to-full-bodied, the Bocca di Lupo cuvée offers notes of citrus, white peach and exotic fruits complemented by a fine minerality.
Red
100% Merlot
One of Italy's rarest Merlots is back at the start. The inviting aroma is almost reminiscent of a Burgundy, with notes of raspberries and, only with time, the typical black forest berries and a delicate peppery spiciness. A real rarity - if only because only around 5,000 bottles were filled.
100% Nebbiolo
The Dagromis Barolo is a blend of Nebbiolo grapes from two distinct terroirs: the softening influence of La Morra and the more structured character of Serralunga. The wine is aged in a combination of oak barriques and larger oak vats, which contributes to its balance and structure. Displays classic notes of ripe fruit, spice, vanilla, tobacco, and leather. The wine has a long, lingering finish.
80% Sangiovese, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc
Tignanello is a world-renowned Super Tuscan red wine produced by the Antinori family in Tuscany, Italy. Notes of red fruits, strawberries, and pomegranate, with delicate aromas of apricots and peaches. The use of oak barrels (mostly French) lends notes of vanilla, sweet tobacco, and cedar to the wine
100% Sangiovese
Percarlo is San Giusto’s most renowned bottling, made from 100% estate grown sangiovese grapes, especially selected bunch by bunch, from the best zones of our vineyards. The grapes are usually matured to an extra degree of ripeness developing notes of vanilla, dark red cherries, plums, raspberries, cinnamon, currants, and violets
50% Corvina, 25% Corvinone, 20% Rondinella, 5% Molinara
Masi Mazzano Amarone della Valpolicella has a great ageing potential of up to 20 years. Crafted only in the finest vintages and in limited quantities, Mazzano is the flagship cru of the Boscaini family—a powerful, age-worthy Amarone that defines the style with its deep roots, bold character, and classical elegance.
