The wine region of Colli della Toscana Centrale

IGT historic heart of Tuscany between Florence and Siena (expanded Chianti Classico zone), created in 1995 for modern non-DOC wines. Sangiovese is the signature red king: elegant and taut with black cherry, plum, violet, wild herbs, undergrowth, tobacco and balsamic touch, fine tannins — free version of Chianti. "Super-Tuscan" blends with Cabernet, Merlot and Syrah for more density. Flaccianello, Gagliole as stars.

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.
