Tuscany
Sangiovese country — Chianti Classico, Brunello di Montalcino and the boundary-breaking Super Tuscans of the coast.
Chianti Classico is bright and food-loving; Brunello di Montalcino is powerful and long-lived; Bolgheri Super Tuscans blend Sangiovese with Bordeaux varieties for plush density.
Style: Savoury, high-acid reds — sour cherry, dried herb, leather and a firm tannic spine.
