- It has a deep, intense ruby-red colour. On the nose, elegant notes of ripe cherries, plums, and sour cherries blend with delicate spicy sensations of pepper and sweet aromas of liquorice. Its palate is powerful, rich, and well-balanced, with velvety, well-established tannins sustained by excellent freshness. The finish is lengthy and persistent, well-defined by pleasant notes of vanilla and blackberries.
With its warmer climate and a local variant of Sangiovese—Prugnolo—Vino Nobile offers a richer, headier experience than Chianti to the north. The wines have been made for at least 1,200 years; Antinori joined the party in 1990 in a typically impressive style. The La Braccesca estate straddles Vino Nobile and the neighbouring appellation, Cortona, proving Italy’s most successful appellation for Syrah.

Winery | With its warmer climate and a local variant of Sangiovese – Prugnolo – Vino Nobile offers a more prosperous, headier experience than Chianti to the north. The wines have been made for at least 1,200 years; Antinori joined the party in typically impressive style in 1990. The La Braccesca estate straddles Vino Nobile and the neighbouring appellation, Cortona, proving Italy’s most successful appellation for Syrah. Tuscany and Umbria are the regions where Antinori has the highest concentration of vineyards, totalling almost 1,400 hectares of prime sites. Some of the wines – Badia a Passignano, Pèppoli, Tignanello and Solaia – are a single estate's product. At the same time, Villa Antinori and the Vin Santo are blends of selected lots from several of the family’s vineyards, including the flagship Tenuta Tignanello site. |
