Pian Delle Vigne

Pian Delle Vigne

Tuscany is famous for its red wines so when Marchese Niccolò Antinori, father of Piero, the current chairman of the company, decided to make a great white wine, he looked to Umbria and bought the Castello della Sale property, intrigued by the potential of the land and the beautiful medieval castle. 160 ha of vineyards sit on particularly complex land at altitudes of between 164 & 650 ft above sea level. The textural, smart Chardonnay and focussed blending in of other varieties mean that these wines are among the most sought after whites from this part of Italy.

The Pian Delle Vigne estate takes its name comes from the eponymous area where a characteristic nineteenth century railway station is located.

The Pian delle Vigne estate is located 6 kilometers (3.5 miles) southwest of Montalcino. Pian delle Vigne stretches out over an area of 184 hectares (454 acres) of which 65 hectares (160 acres) are planted with vineyards. The estate’s namesake wine, Pian delle Vigne, represents Marchesi Antinori’s deeply personal interpretation of a prestigious and traditional wine such as Brunello di Montalcino.

The Antinori family acquired the estate in 1995, the same year the first Brunello Pian delle Vigne was harvested.
