The wine region of Alta Valle della Greve
Tuscan IGT (1995) from the upper Greve valley south of Florence, at the heart of Chianti Classico. Sangiovese is the signature red — balanced, with vivid notes of black cherry, plum, violet, undergrowth and a spiced-balsamic touch, firm tannins and racy acidity on limestone soils. Native Canaiolo and Colorino as complements. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot for modern, structured Super-Tuscans.
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: Cooked wine
In Provence, wine made from must cooked and reduced over a wood fire, traditionally consumed at Christmas time with the thirteen desserts.
