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: Glycerol
Alcohol very present in wine (after ethyl alcohol) and which reinforces its unctuousness and fatty sensation.
