The wine region of Chianti
Emblem of Tuscan red: signature Sangiovese (70% min) with notes of morello cherry, plum, dried herbs, violet and leather, lively acidity and firm tannins, elegant gastronomic profile. Chianti Classico DOCG ("Gallo Nero") between Florence and Siena, more structured and age-worthy. Riserva and Gran Selezione at the top, barrel-aged. A few supporting grapes (Canaiolo, Colorino).
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: Musty (taste of)
A disgusting taste due to a defect in the grapes or, more commonly, a defect in the barrel.
