The wine region of Vernaccia di San Gimignano
Italy's first white DOCG (1993, ex-DOC 1966) in medieval Tuscany: Vernaccia di San Gimignano signature exclusive white king (>=85%) — straw yellow with golden glints intensifying with age, delicate signature aromas of yellow fruits, white flowers, citrus evolving into spicy and mineral notes, dry harmonious palate with signature almond aftertaste. First Italian white DOC in 1966. Clay-sandy hills around the medieval tower city.
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: Fleshy
Said of a wine that gives the impression of being dense and smooth, a bit like biting into the flesh of a ripe fruit.
