Wine description | Marchesi Antinori’s passion for viticulture is expressed through perseverance: their continuous pursuit for quality improvement, even in the smallest details. Research and development is an ongoing process both in the vineyards and in the cellars: selecting new clones of local and international varieties: experimenting with new techniques in the vineyards and vineyard altitudes, new approaches to fermentation and temperature control, experimenting with both traditional and innovative winemaking philosophies, using new types of oak for barrels, barrel size and age, and varying length of aging in the bottle before commercial release. To succeed at best expressing what a vineyard, grape, and a winemaker can achieve requires constant trial and error, both in the vineyard and in the winery. At Marchesi Antinori, these experiments include a wide range of different grape varieties and clones, planted in a variety of vineyards, different styles and sizes of fermentors as well as techniques of fermentation; barrel types and sizes; length of barrel and bottle aging. |
