Walnut and berry character with hints of chocolate follow through to a medium to full body with velvety tannins. Medium finish. Delicious. Drink now.

Black cherry, blue flower and spice sensations form the focus of this delicious Morellino. Notes of black pepper and cinnamon-spice add depth to the lively, juicy palate. The wine still boasts youthful tannins so give it a few more years to come around and develop fully.
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.
