"Solid, blackish garnet. Expansive, penetrating aromas of spice, coconut and licorice. Muscular, shapely and vigorous, consistent from start to finish. Dense tannins coat the mouth. Unquestionably one of the major wines of the vintage, with strong prospects. Fermented by Roberto Cipresso, and aged and bottled by Attilio Pagli, two major talents among the younger winemakers of Italy."

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.
