"A deep, dense wine, 2010 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Colonia boasts tremendous depth and richness. Rose petal, sage, mint, licorice and red stone fruits all flesh out in the glass. Expressive floral and savory notes develop later, adding further shades of nuance, while veins of bright salinity support the finish."

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.
