The wine region of Colline Lucchesi
Tuscan DOC (1968) on hills north and east of Lucca, between the Apennines and Tyrrhenian Sea, temperate climate with cool nights and long growing season. Sangiovese the signature red (45-80% of Rosso): refined and fruity with cherry, raspberry, violet, herbs and spice, firm tannins and lively acidity — blended with Canaiolo, Ciliegiolo, Merlot and Syrah. Vermentino white, taut with citrus notes. Trebbiano, Malvasia and Chardonnay.
The wine region of Tuscany
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.
The word of the wine: Rosé de saignée
A method of making rosé wine that consists of partially draining a vat of red wine after a few hours of maceration. The longer the maceration, the stronger the colour. This practice gives rich and expressive rosés.
