Villa Antinori Rosso Toscana IGT 2024 continues a story that began in 1928, when Niccolò Antinori created a wine intended to represent both the family and Tuscan identity. It remains one of the most recognisable Antinori labels, built around the balance between Sangiovese and international varieties grown on the family's Tuscan estates.

The 2024 vintage and barrique maturation

The 2024 season began with a mild, rainy autumn and winter, followed by warm and generally dry summer conditions. Rainfall at the end of August and cooler temperatures helped the grapes complete ripening. Harvest started in early September with Merlot, continued with Sangiovese and ended with Cabernet during the first ten days of October. After malolactic fermentation was completed by November, the wine was transferred to French and Hungarian oak barriques for maturation. Bottling began in late April 2026.

Tasting profile and food pairings

Ruby red in colour, it opens with sour cherry and blood orange, followed by delicate notes of green pepper, boxwood, toasted oak and tobacco. The palate is soft and enveloping, supported by lively freshness and supple tannins, with a long, persistent finish. It pairs well with savoury pasta dishes, red meats, roasts and game. Recommended serving temperature: 16-18 °C.
