Fresh, fruity sparkling wines with fine bubbles and an airy mouth, featuring aromas of green apple, pear, white peach, white flowers, citrus and fresh almond notes. Tonic acidity, light and refreshing finish. The undisputed star of Prosecco DOC, Prosecco di Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG and Asolo Prosecco DOCG, one of the world's most exported sparkling wines (Charmat method). Native Venetian grape, formerly called Prosecco.
Kingdom of Sangiovese: upright reds with cherry, plum, dried herbs and leather, lively acidity and firm tannins. Fleshy, food-friendly Chianti Classico DOCG, deep long-ageing Brunello di Montalcino (spice, tobacco, ripe black fruit), elegant Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. On the coast, Bolgheri crafts the opulent Cabernet- and Merlot-based 'Super Tuscans'. Some fresh white Vernaccia.
