The Antinori Family
The Antinori family has been making wine for more than six centuries, with 26 generations of the family carrying forward a legacy built on a deep respect for tradition, an unwavering pursuit of quality and a willingness to embrace innovation. Since 1999, this heritage has extended to Franciacorta, where the family produces its sparkling wines at Tenuta Montenisa in the heart of the appellation. Here, centuries of winemaking experience meet the distinctive character of the Franciacorta terroir, with the estate combining meticulous vineyard care and traditional-method production with a modern focus on elegance and finesse.
Cuvée Royale is a refined expression of the Antinori approach to Franciacorta, bringing together the family's expertise with the freshness and character of the territory. Produced using the traditional method and matured on its lees, it reflects the precision, balance and longevity that have defined the Antinori name across generations.
