"The 2015 Chianti Classico Ca' di Pesa is a wine of real pedigree and class. Wonderfully deep and generous, it also retains striking translucence. Sweet red cherry, spice, mint, leather, tobacco and pomegranate overtones give the wine much of its sensual, inviting personality . . . . The purity of the fruit here is striking. L'Orcio, a tiny estate in Panzano's Conca d'Oro, continues to make some of the most compelling Chianti Classicos. The wines are rich and sumptuous - as the bottlings from this sector tend to be - and yet they also possess remarkable purity."

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.
The historic heart of the Chianti zone, producing Sangiovese-based reds of bright cherry fruit, savory herbs and firm structure.
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.
