Descrizione

The Buiano Chianti Classico DOCG Gran Selezione from Marchesi Antinori is presented in magnum and a wooden case, an ideal choice for a gift or special occasion. In the glass it shows a complex and balanced profile: aromas of ripe red and black fruit accompanied by spicy notes, floral hints and a subtle earthy background. On the palate it offers structure and depth, well-integrated tannins and lively acidity that supports a sustained, not intrusive finish. It is a wine of character that retains refinement and control.

It pairs with robust dishes such as red meat, game and aged cheeses, and also stands up to flavorful preparations with mushrooms or intense sauces. Serve at a moderate temperature and, when possible, open the bottle a few hours before or decant to fully appreciate the aromas. The magnum format and wooden case make it suitable both for cellar storage and as a gift.

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.

Terroir and vineyards
