Marchesi Antinori Peppoli Chianti Classico 2025

Marchesi Antinori Pèppoli is a fruit-forward Chianti Classico that brings together Sangiovese, Merlot and Syrah in a fresh, approachable style. Made at the Pèppoli estate since 1985, it draws on a site whose agricultural history reaches back to 1379.

Tasting Notes
Deep ruby red in the glass, it opens with aromas of cherry and blackberry, lifted by violet, balsamic notes and a subtle toasted nuance. On the palate, it is lively and fresh, with soft tannins and a persistent, savoury finish. No specific ageing potential is provided.

Production
The grapes come from hillside vineyards at the Pèppoli estate in San Casciano Val di Pesa, a few kilometres from Tenuta Tignanello. The varieties are harvested and vinified separately to preserve their individual character. After gentle crushing and destemming, fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks, with measured maceration to extract supple tannins. Following malolactic fermentation and blending, the wine matures for around nine months in large Slavonian oak casks, with a smaller portion aged in barriques.

Food & Serving
Enjoy with pasta served with ragù or braised meats. Serve at around 16–18°C; a brief decant of 20–30 minutes can help open the aromas, though it is not essential.

Producer
The Antinori family has a long history in Tuscan wine, while Pèppoli itself has been produced at the estate since 1985. The property’s vineyards sit on land cultivated by Vallombrosan monks as far back as 1379, linking the wine to the area’s deep agricultural heritage. Pèppoli offers a contemporary, fruit-led expression of Chianti Classico and its Sangiovese character.
