"The 2006 Petrucci (Sangiovese) reveals a finely-knit fabric of ripe red fruits, flowers, menthol and tobacco, all of which come together with exceptional grace and elegance in a powerful yet sublime style. The wine possesses stunning length and silky, elegant tannins that frame the fruit all the way through to the long, satisfying finish. This is a gem from Podere Forte. What a pleasure it is to taste the two new releases from Podere Forte, a small estate that continues to impress for the sheer pedigree of their wines."

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.
