Discover the grape variety: Verdelho rouge

Light, fruity reds best drunk young, with a clear ruby colour, silky tannins and an airy palate with fresh acidity. Subtle signature aromas of red fruits (cherry, raspberry) and floral notes. Atlantic heritage profile. Now rare, it survives on small plots in Madeira and reflects the island's historic grape diversity. A black-skinned mutation of the white Verdelho, a traditional Portuguese variety from Madeira.

The wine region of Brunello di Montalcino

Absolute Tuscan icon, Italy's first DOCG (1980). Pure Sangiovese Grosso ("Brunello"): powerful, sturdy reds with signature notes of ripe black cherry, plum, violet, leather, tobacco and undergrowth, firm tannins and great ageing (20-30 years). Minimum 5 years' ageing (6 for Riserva), of which 2 in oak. A noble style, a perfect match for red meats and truffles.


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: Dried

Said of a worn out red wine lacking flesh and volume.
