Firm, upright reds with precise acidity and angular tannins, showing aromas of sour cherry, plum, dried herbs, leather, black tea and balsamic notes. Characteristically bitter, savoury finish. Star of Chianti Classico DOCG, Brunello di Montalcino DOCG, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG and Morellino di Scansano. Italy's most planted variety, a descendant of Ciliegiolo × Calabrese di Montenuovo.
Subtropical Australian wine state, high-altitude vineyards (800-1,000 m) on Granite Belt among the country's highest.

Ample Chardonnay, firm Cabernet, supple Merlot. 'Strange Bird' program: floral Fiano, saline Vermentino, spicy Tempranillo, dense Saperavi.
