The wine region of Chianti Rùfina
Tuscan DOCG northeast of Florence (Tuscan-Romagnan Apennines, altitude, rocky and clayey limestone soils): signature Sangiovese as red king (>=70%) — garnet robe, perfumed and mineral aromas with tart fruits, slightly tannic sensation, elegance, structure and acidity forged by continental altitude climate. Savory and energetic notes, chiseled and nervous expression, more penetrating and taut than other Chianti. Water-retaining clay, worthy of ageing.
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.
