The wine region of San Gimignano
Medieval Tuscan town with famous towers, vineyards at 200-400 m on clay-limestone hills (Siena). Vernaccia di San Gimignano white king (indigenous noted from 1276, Italy's first DOC in 1966, DOCG 1993): crisp and floral with green apple, citrus, fresh almond and mineral touch, slightly bitter finish — precise and upright. Chianti Colli Senesi and San Gimignano Rosso in fruity Sangiovese. Elegant whites at the Tuscan table.
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: Extraction
All the methods (pumping over, punching down) that allow the colour and tannins to be extracted from the grape skin during maceration, before fermentation begins. It is also possible to macerate after fermentation, but gently, so as not to extract the tannins from the seeds, which are greener. Because of its solvent power, alcohol favours extraction.
