From grape to glass, the life of wine is one of rich, careful design.
In some cases, this rich design can be found in the architecture of modern wineries.
The discipline of winery architecture has yielded some of the most incredible buildings standing around the world today.
Cantina Antinori Winery
Both visually and ecologically, Cantina Antinori Winery is a masterwork of design.
Each section has a distinct design of its own, and each is as visually striking as the next.
It is sculptural, industrial architecture at its best.
Its three-pointed star design rises above the vineyard with climbing pathways that welcome guests to a rooftop patio.
Its a remarkable undertaking in scale and design, one that produces great Spanish wine to boot.
In our eyes, the design of Bodegas Darien is superior to the flair-without-function of Gehrys Marques de Riscal.
Its grape harvest facility faces southeast for neutralize temperature gain from the summer sun.
The cave holds a tasting room and event section with color-treated rock walls, modern furnishings and strategic lighting.
It houses an office, the maturation chambers, guest facilities and more in this progressively-designed space.
