Winemaker Notes
Charged ruby. The nose is ethereal and ample, refined and enticing, with noble aromas. The palate is full bodied with extraordinary structure, terrific harmony, andsurprising softness.
Pairs well with roasts, grilled meats, truffled dishes, and aged cheeses.

A soft, fruity red showing the ripeness of the 2017 vintage, yet at the same time it’s round, rich and open. Plenty of plum, berry and tile character with a delicious, fruity finish. Drink or hold.

Legendary in Italy for its Renaissance art and striking landscape, Tuscany is also home to many of the country’s best red wines. Sangiovese reigns supreme here, as either the single varietal, or a dominant player, in almost all of Tuscany’s best.
A remarkable Chianti, named for its region of origin, will have a bright acidity, supple tannins and plenty of cherry fruit character. From the hills and valleys surrounding the medieval village of Montalcino, come the distinguished and age-worthy wines based on Brunello (Sangiovese). Earning global acclaim since the 1970s, the Tuscan Blends are composed solely of international grape varieties or a mix of international and Sangiovese. The wine called Vine Nobile di Montepulciano, composed of Prognolo Gentile (Sangiovese) and is recognized both for finesse and power.
