The Santa Cristina winery was founded in 1946 by the Marchesi Antinori and is still a firm reference point for wine growing in the region. From the winery you can enjoy a splendid view of the historic town of Cortona, not far from Siena and Perugia, in the fertile valley of the Val di Chiana, in southern Tuscany.

Respect and care in the care of the vineyards and in the work in the cellar, constant confrontation with the autochthonous and international grape varieties, spirit of innovation, knowledge of the close relationship between vineyard, terroir and people, have always been the foundations of the simple philosophy of the winery Santa Cristina and guarantee intact quality.

Shiraz, also known as Syrah, is a red wine grape variety that is grown in many regions around the world. The grape is known for producing wines with rich, full-bodied, and intense flavors. The wine typically has flavors of dark fruit, such as blackberry and plum, as well as notes of pepper, licorice, and smoke. In warm climates, Shiraz wines can also have a jammy character with high alcohol content.

The wine style can vary depending on where the grape is grown, for example, in Australia, Shiraz wines are typically full-bodied and high in alcohol, with ripe fruit flavors and a relatively high level of oak influence. In the Northern Rhône region of France, the wines tend to be more elegant, with a focus on the grape's natural pepper and meaty notes, and less oak influence. Shiraz pairs well with a variety of hearty and flavorful dishes, especially rich meats such as beef, lamb, and game.
