    Portrait of Alberto Antonini

    i. Biography

    Alberto Antonini is an Italian winemaker and consulting oenologist associated with Bodega Garzón in Maldonado, Uruguay, where the official winery page lists him as winemaker and describes his work as focused on expressing native terroir through wine. The winery’s Spanish profile says he studied enology at the University of Florence and in Bordeaux, began his professional career at Frescobaldi in 1986, and later became head of winemaking at Antinori before building a global consulting career. Official Bodega Garzón materials also place him at Podere Brizio and Poggiotondo in Italy, and note his residence in Poggiotondo; the linked anchors do not identify a separate organization for Cipriana, so that affiliation remains uncertain.
