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: Chaptalization
The addition of sugar at the time of fermentation of the must, an ancient practice, but theorized by Jean-Antoine Chaptal at the dawn of the 19th century. The sugar is transformed into alcohol and allows the natural degree of the wine to be raised in a weak or cold year, or - more questionably - when the winegrower has a harvest that is too large to obtain good maturity.
