The wine region of Maremma Toscana
Tuscan coast swept by Tyrrhenian winds, land of the "Super Tuscans". Dense, sunny reds with signature notes of ripe black cherry, blackberry, Mediterranean herbs, leather, tobacco and spice, round tannins and a warm palate. Sangiovese, king of Tuscany, magnified by the Bordeaux grapes: firm Cabernet Sauvignon, round Merlot, peppery Cabernet Franc, spicy Syrah, fruity Ciliegiolo. Saline Vermentino, ample Ansonica 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: Bordeaux barrel
Barrels of 220 to 225 litres. The toasting of the barrel to bend the staves (curved boards used to make the barrels) can vary according to the coopers and the demand. A gentle and slow toasting has little effect on the aromas. On the other hand, a strong toasting gives aromas of coffee or cocoa which will influence the taste of the wine. A wine barrel has already been aged for a year and has less impact on the wine than a new barrel.
