The wine region of Monteregio di Massa Marittima

Sangiovese is king in reds (≥80% in Rosso, Riserva, Rosato and Novello): fruity and sun-drenched with notes of red cherry, plum, Mediterranean herbs, garrigue and a spicy touch, round tannins — authentic Maremma expression. Firm Cabernet Sauvignon and supple Merlot as complements. Saline Vermentino and Trebbiano Toscano (≥50%) in whites.
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: Yellow wine
White wines from the Jura region aged in oak barrels without topping up for at least 6 years. A veil of yeast forms on the surface of the wine, which undergoes slow oxidation, giving it a particular taste reminiscent of nuts.
