Antinori best brand of world wine, no. 1 of “The World’s Most Admired Wine Brands” 2023

The Italy of wine rises once again to the top of the world, winning the “Oscar” of the best brands, once again thanks to one of its leading names, the Marchesi Antinori. With the historic winery of the Antinori family, today led by Albiera, Allegra, and Alessia with their father Piero Antinori and CEO Renzo Cotarella, it is at no. 1 of 2023 of “The World’s Most Admired Wine Brands” by the magazine “Drinks International” revealed today on YouTube, and created every year with the votes of an “academy” made up of influential characters and professionals of the wine industry (buyers, sommeliers, merchants, restaurateurs, Masters of Wine, critics, educators and more), who judge the quality and consistency of the wine, value for money and the strength of the brand and marketing.
A triumph for Antinori, which comes just a few months after achieving first place in the ranking of the “World’s Best Vineyards 2022” with the monumental Antinori cellar in Chianti Classico designed by Marco Casamonti. However, Antinori, who ranks his iconic Tignanello at no. 21 in “The World’s Most Admired Wine Brands”, joins a large group of top Italian wine brands on a list that also includes many big names from France, Spain, and others. At no. 6, for example, there is the timeless Sassicaia of Tenuta San Guido, Bolgheri star of the Incisa della Rocchetta family, in front, at no. 7, Gaja, the undisputed symbol of the Langhe of Barbaresco and Barolo, of the Gaja family. At no. 25, then, we find Planeta, one of the wineries that over the years has brought Sicily’s wine to world distinction, led by cousins Alessio, Francesca, and Santi Planeta, while in position no. 33 and no. 34 we return to the nobility of Tuscan wine, again with one of the stars of Bolgheri, Ornellaia, and with Frescobaldi, another top brand and centuries-old name in Italian wine, both of the Frescobaldi group led by Lamberto Frescobaldi. A tricolor “parterre de rois” that makes the star of Italian wine shine brighter than ever before.
