  • Antinori's Super Tuscans: Tignanello & Solaia
    ROBERSON WINE FINE WINE TASTINGS ANTINORI’S SUPER TUSCANS: TIGNANELLO & SOLAIA Thursday 28th April 2011 ANTINORI’S SUPER TUSCANS THE ESTATE The family The Antinori family are well entrenched as part of Tuscan wine royalty, their involvement in the trade dating back to 1385 when Giovanni di Pierso Antinori first joined the winemakers’ guild. For many years, as was the case with other famous wine families like the Frescobaldis and Ricasolis, they were involved in the buying and selling of wine estates as well as having interests in many other trades. In 1506 Nicolo Antinori purchased the beautiful palazzo in Florence which, to this day, remains the HQ of today’s Marchese Piero Antinori and his sprawling wine empire which encompasses 24 estates in 6 different countries. For hundreds of years after the Marchese and his descendents had moved in to the palazzo, the wines of the Antinori family established a reputation as an excellent source for Tuscan wines and they began accumulating land in some of the region’s most famed viticultural areas - in particular Chianti Classico. By 1863, the family business was doing well enough that the ‘Fattoria dei Marchesi Lodovico e Piero Antinori’ was formed in order to fully professionalise what they were doing and with the aim of “establishing some order among the various winegrowing activities developed by the previous generations of Antinoris since the XIV century.”. Before long, this new company had become one of the star performers and the family’s influence continued to grow as the wines were exported throughout the world. This ambassadorial role was continued by today’s Marchese, Piero, who is widely heralded as the most important man in Tuscan wine thanks to his wide reaching efforts to improve the quality and reputation of Tuscan wines.

  • It Is the Wine Area That Remained on the Private Memory of Our Great
    IN THE CRADLE OF AN ANCIENT CULTURE WE PRODUCED WINE FOR FAMILY PLEASURE FOR DECADES. NOW WE WANT TO CONTRIBUTE TO LET OUR ISLAND, SARDINIA, SHINE THROUGH ITS MOST OUTSTANDING AREAS - MEILOGU AND GALLURA. WITH A NEW VISION: THE CRU CONCEPT THE ORIGINS We decided to start from our homeland, the Meilogu, renowned for its production of grapes and cherries. Meilogu – in sardinian language - means “place in the middle”, and in fact is an area in the center of the Logudoro – “gold place” in sardinian language - a beautiful region in northern Sardinia. It is an untouched land, which has preserved the suggestions of our early history. It is a land that hosted, just until a few years ago, one of the Sardinia largest areas of quality grapes’ production, reaching over 1,000 hectares of vineyards. It is the wine area that remained on the private memory of our great mentor and guide - the celebrated winemaker Giacomo Tachis – used to visit these places, for the selection of grapes and musts. THE MEILOGU Here, in the village named Bonnanaro, where we grow our vines, it is possible to discover some of the remains of an ancient culture, which preceded the “Nuraghi” era. It is easy to understand why our ancestors chose this region, and built here one of the most magnificent Nuraghe: “sa Domo de su Re” (the house of the king), and the nuragic village of “Santu Antine”. Meilogu is a sweet land, exposed to light and wind, perfect for vineyards, fields, orchards and flocks. The grapes ripe near cherry trees, the vines take strength from our sandy and limestone earth.

  • Bolgheri Wines at 25
    HI, MICHAEL PREMIUM MY ACCOUNT | MY WINES | LOGOUT PREMIUM Bolgheri at 25: A retrospective As this tiny but powerful DOC toasts its first quarter-century, the region’s winemakers are fully embracing the adventurous legacy of the SuperTuscan and continuing to build upon it. Richard Baudains reflects on this Tuscan crown jewel and what lies ahead for its producers, plus his top ten wines from the 2016 vintage... Richard Baudains April 7, 2020 T Highlights Magazine: May 2020 Issue Tastings Home Bolgheri means fundamentally Bordeaux blends, although the production norms also allow for monovarietals. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot account for 60% of the 1,370ha of vineyard, followed by Cabernet Franc, Syrah and the complementary variety Petit Verdot. Bolgheri Superiore is at the pointy end of the production pyramid, representing a rigidly selected 15% of the total annual bottling, alongside which there are also a limited number of IGTs of the ‘SuperTuscan’ ilk. The younger, early-drinking Bolgheri Rosso represents the second wine for most estates. Making a name In August 2019, Bolgheri celebrated the 25th anniversary of the founding of its wine producers’ consorzio. It was an occasion for ‘who are we, where are we coming from, where are we going’ type reflections. Federico Zileri, owner of the Castello di Bolgheri estate and former president of the consorzio, divides the modern history of wine in Bolgheri into three phases. In the beginning was Sassicaia, the wine that Marchese Mario Incisa della Rocchetta originally made for his own family’s consumption, which was to become one of Italy’s truly iconic wines, with an inimitable style and consistency that sets it apart from any general discussion of the wines of Bolgheri.

  • Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah
    The story behind a bottle… The Estate Tribute to Terroir Maremma the Italian Medoc History & Heritage The Vision Evocative Emblem & Name The Cellar & Sustainable growing Tribute to terroir Fertuna Is located in the heart of Tuscan Maremma. The Gavorrano plain sets an ideal scenery with its rich cultural and historical heritage, going from Etruscans to Romans to medieval age and have all attributes for winegrowing the varietals as Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah. The land is quiet and peaceful, where the uncontaminated nature rules. In this area the human touch has acted in accordance with nature, drawing an amphitheatre of vineyards. Vineyards, mixed with other crops, provide all around a sunny, pleasant and attractive atmosphere. The brightness of the sky, the sun, the special soil, the sea or mountain’s air currents are the perfect scenery for winegrowing activity. Maremma, the Italian Medoc Maremma was, indeed, considered, until the first decades of the past century, a hostile and unhealthy land all along its coasts. Today wine production, together with tourism, is what makes this part of Tuscany so famous in the world. One starts with the so-called “nectar of the Gods” and ends up by discovering the area’s natural heritage, culture, history and emerging economy. This strip of Tuscany, called by many THE ITALIAN MEDOC, is an area of great wine-making potential, which is bringing exceptionally high-quality wines to the market and fast becoming a principal area of exploration of some of the most important investments in the Italian wine industry. Here, beside autochthone Sangiovese, have been planted international vines such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Petit Verdot, creating some truly extraordinary wines and also what the dear departed Giacomo Tachis has rightly called “deluxe oenology”.

  • Antinori En Primeur Offer for 2019
    2019 EN PRIMEUR OFFER 5 ANTINORI OVERVIEW The Antinori family has been producing wine in Tuscany for six centuries and exporting it for four – that’s 26 generations of uninterrupted family ownership, making them the 10th oldest company in the world still in the hands of the same family. They moved to Florence in the early 13th century, and remain central figures in the fabric of the city. Piazza Antinori is the square in the historic centre where Marchese Piero Antinori still lives. The purchase of the Tignanello estate in 1850 marked the beginning of a remarkable period of expansion, which shows no signs of abating. Through judicious acquisition of vineyards, and an uncanny knack for developing iconic wines, Antinori has become Tuscany’s – arguably Italy’s – preeminent wine producer, establishing an important presence in Piedmont, Umbria, Puglia and Lombardy. Marchese Piero Antinori sums up the company’s outlook thus: “Ancient roots play an important role in our philosophy, but they have never held back our spirit of innovation.” Today the president of the company is Albiera Antinori (Piero’s eldest daughter), while the Marchese retains the title of honorary president. Renzo Cotarella, creator of Cervaro della Sala, is the CEO and chief winemaker. **At Wimbledon Wine Cellar, we have had a close association with the Antinori family for over 30 years. It has been a wonderful association as we were one of the the first people to ship this family's wine into the UK. They have been pioneers, and we are proud to stock a whole selection of these super wines.

  • 2014 Samas Agricola Punica, Sardinia, Italy
    2014 Samas Agricola Punica, Sardinia, Italy Product details Vintage: 2014 Drinking: Now 2018 Producer: Agricola Punica Alcohol: 13% Region: Sardinia Variety: Vermentino Country: Italy Tasting notes Incredibly fresh and zesty this is going to make perfect summer drinking. Refreshing acidity with concentrated pear, apple and apricot flavours. Whilst primarily about crisp fruit characters there is a touch of minerality and almost waxy texture here. A blend of 80% Vermentino and 20% Chardonnay, this will provide extremely enjoyable drinking for the next year. About the producer Agricola Wine In the south-western corner of Sardinia, between Cagliari and the white sand beaches of Porto Pino, is a wild land of Maquis. But here and there can be seen serried rows, where the scrubland has been tamed and planted with vines. Chief among those who have mastered this challenging terroir is Antonello Pilloni, President of Santadi winery. For years, Santadi’s consultant oenologist was the great Giacomo Tachis. Of course, the late Tachis was better known as the innovative genius at Tenuta San Guido in his home province - co-creator of the first Super- Tuscan, Sassicaia. It was Giacomo Tachis who persuaded Tenuta San Guido winemaker Sebastiano Rosa to join him and Pilloni in a joint venture to realise the full potential of the Sulcis Meridionale region of Sardinia - following the Super-Tuscan model and planting non- indigenous grapes which would nonetheless thrive. (Santadi largely, although not wholly, concentrates on grape varieties typical to the region.) The resulting estate was founded in 2002 and named Agricola Punica, after the Phoenicians of Carthage, who controlled this part of Sardinia from the ninth to second centuries BCE and were the first people to plant vines here.
