"Full, brilliant garnet with ruby highlights. Ample, sustained, varietally accurate aromas of sweet plum, raspberry and redcurrant. Rich, succulent and layered in the mouth; very ripe but without a hint of fatigue or evolution. Much force and warmth from the alcohol. Caressing on the palate and echoing on the aftertaste."

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
The heartland of Sangiovese, producing Chianti Classico, Brunello di Montalcino and the Cabernet-influenced 'Super Tuscans' of the coast. Its wines balance bright acidity, savory structure and cellar-worthiness.
A powerful, age-worthy Sangiovese from the warm hills of Montalcino, requiring extended aging and prized for depth and longevity.
Tuscany's signature red, giving high-acid, savory wines of sour cherry, herbs and firm tannin. It is the backbone of Chianti, Brunello and many Super Tuscans.
