"The 2000 Carmignano Riserva is simply the best of the appellation, rich and potent on the nose, an explosion of perfectly ripe berry fruit, minerals, and tar, and a palate of exceptional concentration, roundness, intensity, and velvet. Among the unrestrained admirers of this wine is Andrea Franchetti of Tenuta di Trinoro, not only an outstanding producer but also a connoisseur of superior winemaking. Drink: 2005-2020."

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.
