The wine region of Orcia

DOC of the Val d'Orcia in Tuscany (UNESCO landscape between Pienza, San Quirico and Montalcino), clay-limestone soils, Mediterranean-continental climate. Sangiovese is the signature red (≥60% in Rosso, ≥90% as varietal): fruity and elegant with red cherry, raspberry, plum, violet, herbs and spice, fine tannins and lively acidity — an accessible alternative to neighbouring Brunello. Colorino, Canaiolo, Ciliegiolo and Foglia Tonda in blends. Fresh rosés from the same Sangiovese.


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: INAO glass

Glass adapted to wine tasting, created in the 1970s by the Institut national des appellations d'origine. At the time, it had the advantage of offering a standardised tool to all tasters. It is characterized by a wide base that allows for good ventilation and a narrow mouth (opening of the glass) to concentrate the aromas. Many high-performance glasses have been created based on this model.
