The Antinori family’s roots (and heart) are in the Chianti Classico in Tuscany. This not only dates back to 1385 when Giovanni di Piero joined the Winemakers Guild of Florence, but also to a monumental occasion in 1716, when Antonio Antinori led a Commission tasked by Cosimo III de’ Medici to define the geographical boundaries of the world’s first wine appellation: Chianti Classico. This forever linked the region to the Antinori family.
The family continues to invest in the region with new vineyards and at the state-of-the-art Chianti Classico Winery they opened a few years ago, which is open to wine lovers around the world.
