"Rich, dark, ruby color. Compact and concentrated nose of black truffle, blackberry, some black cherry, and fine balsamic tones. Powerful and grippy on the palate, revealing tightly-woven, multi-layered tannin, coated in a mellow texture. A rough diamond needing to be polished by time."

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.
