Tuscany
Italy's most ancient wine region, Tuscany may not be a heavyweight in terms of quantity, but as the home of two of the country's most famous fine wines – Chianti and Brunello di Montalcino – it certainly holds its own in terms of quality. Tuscany's climate ranges from Mediterranean on the coast to continental deep in the Apennines. More than two thirds of the province is covered with hills, an important terroir factor in its fine wines.

Deep red cherry in colour and bright with redcurrant, bramble and herbal aromas, this wine perfectly reflects the temperate 2013 vintage in Montalcino. Possessing refreshing acidity, mineral depth and finely integrated tannins, from its time spent in oak botti, the palate is sumptuous, elegant and refined. Made for us by the Luciani family, whose vineyards are located on Montalcino’s eastern slopes, this is an example of classical Brunello at its best. Drink now to 2030.

This is a beautiful, lucid cherry colour with purple flashes. The nose is a tightly woven with ripe cherries, grained leather and Tuscan garden herbs. The palate is cleansing and bright, with crunchy cranberries, sour cherries and a ripe plum character, showing the generosity and richness of the vintage. The fruit flavours, framed by silky tannins give way to sweet spices, and a wonderful savoury edge, typical of Sangiovese. Drink now to 2024.

The wines have Cepparello at their head, a barrique-aged Sangiovese classified as an IGT - because at the time of its creation in the 1980s a wine comprising 100% Sangiovese could not legally be labelled as Chianti. This is a fabulous Super Tuscan at an incredibly good price and a wine that can age 10 – 15 years if one so wishes.
Isole e Olena’s Sangiovese Super-Tuscan Sangiovese never fails to please. Beautiful ripe Sangiovese nose of black cherries intermingled with hints of spice. Big and rich on the palate with savoury black cherries, grilled meats and loganberry notes, framed by crisp acidity, fine tannins and a lick of warmth from the alcohol. A very impressive Super-Tuscan which could be drunk now, but would reward 5-10 years in the cellar for the components to knit together and gain complexity. A great lesson in what great Sangiovese from Chianti Classico is capable of producing.

Local lad Andrea Mantengoli’s organic fruit, modern approach to winemaking and use of both large Slavonian barrels and small French barriques for ageing, provides a more contemporary expression of Brunello di Montalcino. Indeed so much so that we charged him with making our new own-label Brunello di Montalcino. The seven-hectare property is well located close to neighbours Cerbaiona, on the north-eastern shoulder of Montalcino, blessed with atypically white, tufo, limestone soils.
