Wines of Tuscany
The Tuscany, predominantly
hilly, is because of its tradition
and presence of the large wines, one of the most important realness in the
oenology range of Italy and the world. The Sassicaia, cultivated and
manufactured in
Bolgheri, is one of
the quality symbols of the oenological Italy and opened the road for the
"super tuscans", between others the Tignanello and Solaia.
The production is distributed over the whole region: from
the hills of Chianti, between
Florence
and
Siena, up to the
Maremma, from the border
Liguria to Montalcino,
from
Bolgheri up to the hills of
Arezzo.
The Sangiovese is the undisputed ruler. From a kind of Sangiovese, in
Montalcino, develops the Brunello, while between the white grapes the
Trebbiano Toscano is the most diffuse one. Together with the Sangiovese
and the Canaiolo Nero he forms the Chianti.
