Descrizione

The Buiano Chianti Classico DOCG Gran Selezione in jeroboam format, presented in a wooden case by Marchesi Antinori, is a red wine intended for occasions where a wine with character is sought. It is a selection that reflects the house's identity without presuming technical specifics; in the glass it shows concentration and a structure that suggests balance between aromatic elements and gustatory tension. Care in production and a refined presentation make it suitable for storage or for representative occasions.

For pairing, it suits hearty dishes and traditional preparations, and is also a fitting choice for convivial dinners or as a gift for collectors or enthusiasts. The wooden case and jeroboam format enhance its presence at the table and simplify storage. It is recommended to serve it at an appropriate temperature and to consider decanting according to personal preference to fully appreciate its expression.

The property entered the Antinori holdings in the 1930s; the estate’s modern winemaking development took place from the late 1980s–1990s. First documented vintage of Vermentino at the estate: 1996.

Production philosophy

Terroir and vineyards
