The wine region of Bolgheri Superiore
Tuscan coastal DOC (Tyrrhenian maritime microclimate, sun reflection off the sea, varied gravelly soils): Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc as signature Bordeaux-style reds (0–100% each), complemented by Syrah, Petit Verdot and Sangiovese — ripe and sweet dark fruits, balsamic Mediterranean scrub notes, tobacco and liquorice, rounded and supple palate, fresh acidity, silky and dense tannic texture, long generous finish, decade-long ageing.
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: pH
Short for "hydrogen potential", the pH is a parameter that defines whether a medium is acidic or basic. A high pH gives a soft wine, a very low pH translates into a wine that is too acidic.
