The wine region of Brunello di Montalcino

Absolute Tuscan icon, Italy's first DOCG (1980). Pure Sangiovese Grosso ("Brunello"): powerful, sturdy reds with signature notes of ripe black cherry, plum, violet, leather, tobacco and undergrowth, firm tannins and great ageing (20-30 years). Minimum 5 years' ageing (6 for Riserva), of which 2 in oak. A noble style, a perfect match for red meats and truffles.


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: Apogee

This period varies greatly depending on the type of wine and the vintage, and corresponds to the optimum quality of a wine. After the peak comes the decline.
