The wine region of Chianti Classico

Historic heart of Tuscan Chianti: signature Sangiovese as red king (≥80%) — ruby with garnet glints, elegant and complex with notes of ripe cherry, raspberry, plum, violet, leather and a balsamic touch with ageing, silky tannins and a saline mineral finish. Canaiolo, Colorino or Cabernet/Merlot possible as complements. Riserva and Gran Selezione at the summit. DOCG between Florence and Siena, galestro and alberese soils, continental climate — racy, age-worthy wines.


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.
