Sangiovese
A black grape widely grown in Central Italy and the main component of
Chianti
and Vino Nobile
di Montepulciano as well as being the sole permitted grape for the
famed Brunello di
Montalcino.
It is a high yielding, late ripening grape that performs best on well-drained calcareous soils on south-facing hillsides. For years it was blighted by poor clonal selection and massive overcropping - however since the 1980s the quality of Sangiovese-based wines has rocketed upwards and they are now some of the most sought after in the world.
It produces wines with pronounced tannins and acidity, though not always with great depth of colour, and its character can vary from farmyard/leather nuances through to essence of red cherries and plums. In the 1960s the advent of Super Tuscans saw bottlings of 100% Sangiovese wines, as well as the introduction of Sangiovese/Cabernet Sauvignon blends, the most famous being Tignanello.

It is a wine that has a delightful classic style and is not trying too hard to be 'international' in style. Made by the organic estate of Badia a Coltibuono. Wonderfully fresh and vibrant, zinging with raspberry crunch on the nose edged with tobacco and earthiness, but really it is all ... MORE |

The summer may have been too hot for some Tuscan grapes in 2007, but up among the Rufina hills east of Florence, with their heavy clay soils, all was just fine.
