"Medium red. Slightly reduced, musky, balsamic aromas of redcurrant, plum, strawberry and sweet tobacco. Tactile, concentrated and silky, with enticing medicinal reserve to the flavors of plum and salty minerality. Harmonious acidity gives this wine good mid-palate energy. Conveys an impression of strong extract. Finishes serious, distinctive and long, with smooth tannins."

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.
