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.
DOC of the Marche on the Adriatic hills, a blend of two Italian native grapes. Accessible and structured reds with signature notes of black cherry, blackberry, plum, violet, Mediterranean herbs and a spicy touch, round tannins and a generous palate — Montepulciano (35-85%) gives backbone, Sangiovese (15-50%) elegance and fruit. Superiore version more complex (min. 12 months ageing).
