SIGNATURE VINTAGES
1985 Inaugural vintage and therefore historically important.
2006 A strong mature reference for the wine’s ageworthy Chardonnay style.
2013 A cool, precise vintage highlighting freshness and longevity.
2019 A modern benchmark combining richness and tension.
Note: Cervaro is less driven by a formal investment-vintage hierarchy than Antinori’s top reds.
The Investment Case
Cervaro holds value differently from Antinori's major reds. Its significance lies in being one of Italy's best-established premium, ageworthy white wines, giving it strong restaurant and collector recognition. Production is not especially scarce, so its value retention depends more on reputation, mature-wine demand and the relatively limited availability of well-cellared older Italian whites.
