James Suckling
A wine with currant, spices and hazelnut character. Full body, with well-integrated tannins and a long finish. Chewy and rich. Consistently outstanding.

Wine & Spirits
Sangiovese dominates this blend, with cherry flesh and cherry pit flavors alongside scents of pressed flowers. It’s deepened by merlot and cabernet, adding blacker fruit and herb scents. It ends on cool, fruit-derived tannins and a soft touch of older wood. An elegant Tuscan for braised meats.

Wine Spectator
This balanced red shows fine depth to its cherry, currant, tobacco and earth flavors, just needs time to absorb the dusty tannins. There's a modern feel, but the wine is distinctly Tuscan. Sangiovese and Merlot.
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.
