Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot lead in reds ('Tuscan-Bordeaux' style close to Bolgheri) — full-bodied and precise with cassis, black cherry, plum, garrigue and a mineral edge, ripe tannins and excellent ageing potential. Sangiovese (≥40% of Rosso DOCG) adds structure. Vermentino taut and Ansonica saline in whites.

On the coast, Bolgheri crafts the opulent Cabernet- and Merlot-based 'Super Tuscans'. Some fresh white Vernaccia.
