Product details
The first Santa Cristina vintage was produced by Marquis Niccolò Antinori in 19346. Over time, Santa Cristina has become a reference point wine both for connoisseurs and for the public as a whole as a direct result of a constant commitment to quality. The care and attention which have always been invested in the vineyards and in the cellar have stimulated continuous innovation and a constant evaluation and judgment of the house’s work both with international and native grape varieties. An entire family of products has been created in this way, each different but distinguished by a common style, fruit of the indissoluble links between vineyard, territory, and human efforts. The classic Santa Cristina has thus been joined by Santa Cristina Bianco, Santa Cristina Rosato, and Santa Cristina Le Mastrelle together with Campogrande and Cipresseto; along with other specialties such as the Santa Cristina extra-virgin olive oil and grappa, they represent yet another step in a long and ongoing viticultural tradition.
