2000 Badia a Passignano Antinori
Badia a Passignano Riserva is produced exclusively from the finest, most highly selected grapes grown on the estate of the same name situated in the Chianti Classico area. The abbey, which is located in an area that has been inhabited at least since the Etruscan period, is one of the finest fortified abbeys in the area. It has been renowned for its wine production for over 1,000 years. The Antinori family bought the 325 hectares’ estate around the abbey (which is own by Vallombrosian monks)in 1987, including the use of the monastery cellars.
