When you say 'wine' in Italy, you say 'Antinori'! This family has been making wine for over six centuries. With respect for the traditions of the Tuscan countryside, 26 successive generations of Antinori have been involved in this. It is the eye for tradition and innovation that has made the Antinori house what it is today: the top of Italy.

Villa Antinori is an important part of the Antinori wine empire as the name is associated with over 100 years of history and it produces the Villa Antinori Rosso and the highly sought after Villa Antinori Bianco.

Villa Antinori was originally produced in 1928 by Marchese Niccolò Antinori as a Chianti Classico that could age and improve with time. Shortly after, Villa Antinori became a highly sought-after wine in the most prestigious cellars of embassies, royal houses, important hotels and restaurants. In 1931, Villa Antinori Bianco was made from traditional Trebbiano grapes. In the 1980s, a small percentage of Chardonnay was added to give the wine better structure.

The 2020 growing season will be remembered as one of the coolest in the last five years at the Tenuta Monteloro estate. Well-distributed rain showers and average temperatures and even slightly below seasonal averages until mid-July. These climatic conditions encouraged a slow, normal growth of the vines and favored an optimal, balanced vegetative cycle. August was warm with scattered rainfall during the last days of the month, which guaranteed temperature variations of about 10 °C between day and night and this makes a wine elegant with sufficient fruit and acidity. By harvest time in mid-September, Pinot Bianco reached ideal ripeness with an excellent balance between sugar concentrations, acidity and aromatic components.

The harvested grapes were destemmed and gently pressed. The must was cooled to a temperature of 10 °C (50 °F) to promote natural clarification. After 48 hours, the clarified must was transferred to temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks where alcoholic fermentation took place at a temperature not exceeding 16 °C (61 °F). The wine was aged in stainless steel tanks at a temperature of 10 °C (50 °F).

Only grapes from the very best Pinot Blanc vineyards on the Monteloro estate, located in the hills behind Fiesole, are used to make Villa Antinori. This is one of the historic wines of the Antinori family that has been given a new expression capable of expressing the harmony and sensations of an ancient territory known for the production of white wines.

The Villa Antinori Pinot Bianco is straw yellow in color with greenish hues. In the nose it is refined and elegant with notes of tropical fruit and hints of paprika, a little spice and a touch of citrus. The taste is full and rich with a long mineral finish.

Sommy Pairing Beschrijving De 2021 Tenuta Monteloro Villa Antinori Pinot Bianco is een elegante wijn met verfijnde aroma’s van tropisch fruit, citrus, paprika en subtiele kruiden, aangevuld met een frisse minerale afdronk. Door zijn frisse zuurgraad en volle smaak is deze wijn perfect in balans en brengt hij een mooie harmonie tussen fruitigheid en verfijning. Deze wijn past uitstekend bij lichte gerechten zoals gevogelte en witte vis, vooral wanneer deze bereid zijn met subtiele kruiden of lichte sauzen, omdat de frisheid en complexiteit van de wijn goed samengaan met de delicate smaken. Het serveren van de wijn bij bijvoorbeeld gegrilde kip met citroen of gestoomde vis met een frisse kruidenolie versterkt de fruitige en minerale tonen, waardoor de smaken nog mooier tot hun recht komen.
