"Deep ruby-red color. Extremely elegant aromas of ripe red fruits, plum, cinnamon, nutmeg, licorice and blond tobacco, with a strong mineral streak. Silky-sweet in the mouth, with beautifully ripe fruit that's still young and wound tight. Finishes with textbook fine-grained tannins and superb subtle persistence. In style, this is not unlike a top-notch Bordeaux or a more elegantly styled Napa cabernet."

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.
