"This noteworthy estate's 1990 Brunello is a statuesque wine of immense power, richness, body, and alcohol. It exhibits a dark ruby/garnet color, and an ostentatious bouquet of Asian spices, jammy black-cherries, herbs, cedar, and leather. Dense and concentrated, with adequate acidity, this [is a] stunningly proportioned, massive Brunello . . ."

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.
A powerful, age-worthy Sangiovese from the warm hills of Montalcino, requiring extended aging and prized for depth and longevity.
Tuscany's signature red, giving high-acid, savory wines of sour cherry, herbs and firm tannin. It is the backbone of Chianti, Brunello and many Super Tuscans.
