The wine region of Chianti Colli Fiorentini
Tuscan DOCG around Florence (hills 150–400 m, Pliocene silty clays of the Elsa): Sangiovese as the signature red king, complemented by Canaiolo, Colorino and sometimes Merlot — ruby robe with garnet hints, intense nose of red fruits, violet and wild berries followed by spiced notes, rounded and balanced palate with fine tannins, bright and fresh finish. Charming young, capable of a decade's ageing, silky and indulgent.
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: Bleeding
Old practice for red wines. As soon as the vat is filled with grapes, the tap is opened. A sweet but clear juice escapes from the vat (it can also be used to make rosé). The colour and density of the juice is enhanced, but it should not be overdone. Rarely more than 10% of the volume of a vat, otherwise you risk losing fruit and bringing in bitterness.
