The wine region of Carmignano
Historic Tuscan DOCG northwest of Florence (Prato), pioneer of Sangiovese-Cabernet blends since the 18th century (cuttings from Château Lafite), first DOC allowed to include Cabernet (1975), DOCG since 1990. Sangiovese as the signature red (≥50%) blended with Cabernet Sauvignon and Franc (10–20%): elegant and structured with cherry, plum, blackcurrant, violet, herbs and spice, refined tannins and superb ageing potential — the original Super Tuscan.

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: Perfume
