Marchesi Antinori Wine Dinner

An exclusive wine dinner at The Lanesborough, celebrating the renowned Antinori nel Chianti Classico winery.

As part of a programme of wine dinners and tasting events curated by Head Sommelier Jules Coppier, The Lanesborough at London's Hyde Park Corner is proud to host an exclusive wine dinner with Marchesi Antinori.

For this special event, Jules Coppier will be joined by Silvia Pampaloni, Antinori’s London Brand Ambassador, to guide diners through a remarkable journey into the heritage, terroir, and craftsmanship of one of Italy’s most historic wine families, whose winemaking legacy dates back to 1385 and spans 26 generations.

Guests will enjoy a convivial evening alongside fellow wine lovers, featuring a four‑course modern British menu by The Lanesborough’s Executive Chef, Shay Cooper. Each course will be thoughtfully paired with standout Antinori wines, including Tignanello 2015, Cont’Ugo Bolgheri 2022, Guado al Tasso Vermentino 2024, and Vinsanto 2020; with Franciacorta Blanc de Blancs served with canapés during the welcome reception.

Rooted in centuries of tradition, yet driven by innovation, the Antinori family continues to shape the future of Tuscan winemaking. Their estates across Tuscany and Umbria, including the striking Antinori nel Chianti Classico winery, embody a deep respect for the land, meticulous attention to detail, and an enduring pursuit of excellence.
