Sangiovese di Toscana
The quintessential Tuscan red grape, Sangiovese di Toscana is responsible for some of Italy’s greatest wines, including Chianti, Brunello di Montalcino, and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. It exhibits bright acidity, firm tannins, and flavors of red cherry, plum, dried herbs, and earthy spice. Depending on the terroir and winemaking style, it can range from fresh and fruity to rich and age-worthy. Traditionally aged in large oak casks, it develops complex notes of leather and tobacco over time. As the backbone of Tuscan viticulture, Sangiovese di Toscana remains an expressive and versatile variety that defines Italy’s winemaking heritage.
