Tasting Notes

Vinous Edward Beltrami - 01 Jan 02
(an 85/15 blend of sangiovese and malvasia nera) Medium garnet with ruby reflections. Penetrating aromas of plum, black cherry and violets. Very full, with flavors of cherry confiture, dark chocolate and roasted coffee beans. A powerful wine, displaying chewy tannins and verve. The sensational dark fruit flavors linger into a long finish.

Tuscany

Tuscany, a renowned wine region in central Italy, is famous for its high-quality Sangiovese-based wines. Key styles include Chianti, with vibrant acidity and red fruit flavours; Chianti Classico, known for greater depth; and Brunello di Montalcino, prized for its rich, full-bodied character and ageing potential. Tuscany also produces prestigious Super Tuscan wines that blend Sangiovese with international varietals like Cabernet Sauvignon. Top producers are Antinori, for Tignanello; Castello di Ama, for Chianti Classico; and Biondi-Santi, for Brunello.
