The wine region of Vin Santo di Montepulciano
Tuscan DOC from Siena on Montepulciano (~250–600 m, Pliocene calcareous-clay tufa hills, minimum 3 years ageing in caratelli in the vinsantaia): Trebbiano Toscano, Malvasia Bianca Lunga and Grechetto are the signature whites (≥70%) — straw-yellow to amber profile with figs, honey, candied orange peel, walnuts and caramel after prolonged passerillage. Occhio di Pernice red version based on Sangiovese (50%) with dried fruits and spice; superior version available.
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: Tertiary aromas
Aromas resulting from the aging of the wine in the bottle. The aromas evolve with time, from fresh fruitiness to notes of stewed, candied or dried fruit, to aromas of venison or undergrowth.
