"Simply a stunning wine that was a joy to behold. A limpid, garnet, ruby colour. The nose is exquisite, very complex with violets, blueberry, iodine and cherry. Brilliant delineation and crispness and a touch of eucalyptus evolved with time. The palate is supremely well balanced and focused with a joyousness about it. Touch of black tea on the long aftertaste. A brilliant wine . . ."

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.
