"Dark ruby color, with hints of brick red on the rim. Beautiful aromas of blackberry, violet and fresh porcini. Full-bodied, with round and velvety tannins and a long, long finish. Racy and refined. Beautiful texture. A fabulous finish that lasts for minutes. [1997 Italian blind retrospective.]"

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
The heartland of Sangiovese, producing Chianti Classico, Brunello di Montalcino and the Cabernet-influenced 'Super Tuscans' of the coast. Its wines balance bright acidity, savory structure and cellar-worthiness.
