Winery

The Antinori family released their first wine under the Santa Cristina name in 1946. Since then, Santa Cristina has been a byword for quality and value in Tuscany – now more so than ever since the creation of a dedicated winery in 2006. The range now consists of reds and a rosé from Tuscany and whites from Umbria, so the winery’s location in southern Cortona is ideal.
