The wine

Description and technical sheet

Badia a Passignano 2022 is made exclusively from selected Sangiovese grapes grown on Antinori’s namesake estate in the heart of Chianti Classico. The vineyards lie at roughly 250-300 metres above sea level on predominantly limestone soils with clay, in an area with a centuries-old winemaking history.

The Gran Selezione from Badia a Passignano

After destemming, the berries are carefully selected and gently crushed. Alcoholic fermentation lasts about ten days, followed by at least another ten days of skin maceration. Once malolactic fermentation is complete, the wine ages for several months in French oak and a small proportion of Hungarian oak, then rests in bottle before release.

The 2022 vintage profile

Deep ruby red in colour, it offers aromas of morello cherry and redcurrant, followed by dog rose and lavender, with subtle hints of chestnut honey and delicate iron notes. The palate is enveloping and fresh, with refined supple tannins and a long, persistent, savoury finish.

Serving and awards

Serve at 16-18 °C. It pairs well with rich pasta dishes, red meats, game and aged cheeses. The 2022 vintage received 94/100 from Robert Parker, 93/100 from James Suckling, 93/100 from Wine Spectator and 92/100 from Decanter.
