Interesting facts

The winery Tenuta La Braccesca is one of the first acquisitions of Antinori in 1990, located a few kilometers from Montepulciano, South-East of Tuscany, on the border with Umbria. The property has total area of 380 ha and consists of two parts: the historical center, located in the South of Montepulciano and occupying 86 hectares planted with the best vines for the production of Nobile di Montepulciano, and 294 hectares of land between Montepulciano and Cortona, of which 151 hectares given over to vineyards at the foot of the hills surrounding Cortona."La Braccesca" — graceful, elegant and full wine produced by Antinori since 1990. The 2007 vintage is one of the best in recent years, thanks to the good weather of the season. Warm and mild winter has led to the fact that all the physiological cycles of plants (up to harvest) occurred ahead of schedule by two weeks. Dry and warm, but not hot summer allowed the grapes to reach optimum ripeness, so the wine 2007 is a high concentration of color, aroma and structural richness. After harvest, the grapes were crushed and desteblirovan to maintain the integrity of fruit and aromas. After alcoholic fermentation for about 18 days at a temperature not exceeding 28°C, the wine was transferred to oak barrels of various sizes, where took place the malolactic fermentation and subsequent aging for 14 months. After bottling, the wine matured for 12 months.Antinori family is part of the honorary Association of the Oldest Wine Families (Primum Familiae Vini) and is engaged in winemaking for more than six years. The history of the company dates back to Antinori in 1385 and today it operates the representative of the 26th generation of the family — the Marquis Piero Antinori. Largely due to his talent of the winemaker and tireless pursuit of excellence, Italian wine is among the best samples of world wine, and the name Antinori has become a symbol of innovation and quality. Today, the company owns several Antinori wine houses in different parts of Italy, as well as vineyards in Chile, California and Hungary.
