"A kaleidoscope of aromas, flavors and textures hit the palate in Costanti's 2010 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva. A huge, vertical wine, the 2010 opens up in all directions with remarkable depth and aristocratic power. Lavender, violets, crushed rocks, dark spices and black cherries are some of the notes that open up, but the 2010 Riserva is above all else a wine of structure and bold, dramatic beauty. The flavors are remarkably crystalline for such a big, virile Brunello."

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.
