Description

The Antinori family released their first wine under the Santa Cristina name in 1946. Since then Santa Cristina has been a byword for quality and value in Tuscany – now more so than ever since the creation of a dedicated winery in 2006. The range now consists of reds and rosés from Tuscany
and whites from Umbria, so the winery’s location in Cortona, southern Tuscany, is ideal.

The grapes for this wine are all sourced from Antinori’s own estate vineyards within Tuscany. The grapes were destemmed, crushed and gently pressed. After cold settling, the juice was racked and alcoholic fermentation took place in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks. The wine was racked again, stored at a low temperature for a short period in tank, and then bottled.
