American Wine Society Monterey Chapter is very privileged to present our very
special guest Glenn Salva, Wine Estate Manager for Antinori California. Glenn
will take us through a comprehensive presentation of the Antinori Family’s 26
generations of over 600 years of family owned wine making history dating back
to 1385. After which AWS Monterey Chapter Sommelier/ Wine Educator Paige
Post Bindel and Glenn will taste you through two selections from the Mountain
Select Bottlings.
ANTICA is located in the Atlas Peak AVA high above the Napa Valley in the
rugged eastern mountains and was chosen by Piero Antinori for its terrain, rocky,
well-drained soils, high elevation and scenic landscape, all of which produce the
ideal conditions for wine growing. All of the wines are estate grown, estate
produced and estate bottled, illustrating the same commitment in tradition,
authenticity and quest for excellence as all the wines that bear the name Antinori.
Glenn’s two hand selected wines chosen for us to taste for this events are The
2018 Mountain Select Chardonnay and the 2017 Mountain Select Cabernet
Sauvignon. These pedigreed wines will pair fabulously with holiday
dinners and celebrations. Glenn additionally extended us a generous 30% holiday discount
good until the end of January 2021 for the purchase of the two wines which can
be ordered and shipped directly to you from the ANTICA Napa Valley’s web store
