"Dark red. Subdued but pure aromas of red cherry, smoky plum and coffee liqueur. Offers a solid core of juicy berry fruit and chocolate mocha flavors. Impressively horizontal on the finish, with firm tannins and juicy persistence. The sangiovese element gives this smooth and ripe wine welcome acidity and good cut."

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.
