The wine region of Rosso di Montalcino
More accessible little brother of Tuscan Brunello, 100% Sangiovese on the same soils but shorter ageing (~12 months min. ). Signature fruity and silky reds with notes of red cherry, raspberry, plum, violet, Mediterranean herbs and spice touch, fine tannins and indulgent mouth — the soul of Montalcino without the wait. Youthful straight style, pleasure on release.
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.
