Experience the elegance of Super Tuscans with the Antinori Le Mortelle 'Poggio alle Nane' Maremma Toscana 2019, a premium red wine crafted by the historic Marchesi Antinori family estate. This full-bodied Tuscan red wine is a masterful blend of Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Carménère, grown in the heart of the Maremma wine region near Castiglione della Pescaia.
Named after the local word for ducks, "Nane". The Poggio alle Nane vineyard lies on land once home to duck farms, now transformed into one of Tuscany’s most prestigious wine-producing areas. The estate spans over 270 hectares, with 170 hectares dedicated to vineyards flourishing in sandy, loamy soils rich in clay, silica, and rocky deposits, ideal for cultivating both red and white grape varieties.
This 2019 vintage showcases a deep ruby red colour with enticing aromas of ripe red berries, spice, and toasted oak. On the palate, enjoy a velvety texture with smooth tannins, balanced acidity, and a persistent, elegant finish. The traditional Sangiovese adds rustic Tuscan character, while Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot introduce richness and modern structure.
Perfect for collectors and connoisseurs, this wine pairs beautifully with grilled meats, game dishes, and aged cheeses. Whether you are exploring Italian red wine online or searching for a high-end Tuscan red blend, this bottle is a refined expression of Maremma’s terroir and the Antinori winemaking legacy.
Discover Six Centuries of Tuscan Winemaking with the Antinori Family Wines
Experience the legacy of one of Italy’s most iconic wine producers, the Antinori family, whose winemaking heritage in Tuscany spans over 600 years and 26 generations. Since 1385, the Antinori family has crafted fine Italian wines that reflect both ancient tradition and a pioneering spirit of innovation.
Originally silk traders in 12th-century Florence, the Antinori’s transitioned to winemaking and quickly gained international acclaim. By the 16th century, Antinori wines were being exported to France, Flanders, Spain, and North Africa, establishing a global reputation for quality Italian wine exports.
A major milestone in their journey was the acquisition of the Tignanello Estate in 1900, which sparked a new era of innovation and growth. Today, Antinori is celebrated as one of the top Tuscan wine producers, with prestigious vineyards in Piedmont, Lombardy, Umbria, and Puglia.
The Antinori vineyards cover nearly 1,400 hectares of premium vineyard land in Tuscany and Umbria, producing world-renowned wines such as Tignanello, Solaia and Badia a Passignano.
As Marchese Piero Antinori states, “Ancient roots play an important role in our philosophy, but they have never held back our spirit of innovation.”
Whether you're seeking premium red wines from Tuscany or iconic Italian white wines for your collection, the Antinori family continues to define excellence in Italian winemaking.
