More questions
Lodovico of Tenuta del Nicchio represents a refined expression of the Tuscan territory, offering a sensory experience that embodies the passion and winemaking tradition of the Maremma. This wine is born from a careful selection of native grapes, mainly Sangiovese with a possible presence of other local varieties, hand-harvested in vineyards cultivated with environmentally friendly methods. The mild climate, along with the rich and well-drained soils, gives the wine a harmonious structure and natural elegance.
The aging takes place in wooden barrels, where the wine evolves acquiring aromatic complexity and softness on the palate, with a pleasant persistence. On the nose, intense scents of ripe red fruits, violets, and subtle spicy hints can be perceived, giving way to a sensation of freshness and lightness. The tasting surprises with the balance between velvety tannins and vibrant acidity, enhancing the territorial character with a strong yet refined personality.
It is ideal to pair with typical Tuscan dishes, such as grilled meats, aged cheeses, and flavorful first courses, accompanying convivial moments with authentic quality and expression of the terroir.

The story
Tenuta del Nicchio is a recent project by Lodovico Antinori, carried forward together with his daughter Sophia. The vineyards, reclaimed from parcels long left uncultivated in the Tuscan Maremma, have been progressively restored to cultivation to produce wines with a clearly defined territorial identity. Technical management involves external professionals, while the family oversees commercial activity and brand image.
Production philosophy
A pursuit of finesse and a strong sense of place with limited production: the estate favors early harvests and parcel-by-parcel work to produce more elegant, characterful wines, focusing on varieties such as Cabernet Franc and on measured aging.
Terroir and vineyards
Alta Maremma, near Bibbona and Bolgheri. Vineyards lie in parcels a few kilometres from the sea, with vines on north-facing slopes and on steeper, terraced plots.
