The world's most planted red variety, a natural cross of Cabernet Franc x Sauvignon Blanc born in Bordeaux.

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.

The word of the wine: Water stress

Lack of water. Water stress blocks the vegetative cycle of the vine, which uses all available resources to maintain the integrity of the plant, thus blocking the ripening process of the grapes.
