"The 2006 Brunello di Montalcino is a gorgeous, substantial wine laced with black cherries, plums, licorice, menthol, new leather and a streak of French oak. Floral notes appear in the glass, adding freshness, lift and balance to this dark, introspective wine. All of the elements flow together gracefully in this mid-weight, hugely delicious, expansive Brunello."

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.
