"Dark ruby-purple. Dense, profound black fruit and pepper aromas, with roast coffee and anise nuances. Full body. Powerful, rich fruit flavors on entry, complicated by mocha, anise and vanillin oak. Mouthcoating texture, supported by fine ripe tannins and good acidity. This has amplitude and flesh . . . . the oak is certainly well-integrated."

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.
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.
