Tuscany
Italy ยท Old World
Tuscany, located in central Italy, is one of the country's most famous and picturesque wine regions. It is renowned for its rolling hills, historical vineyards, and the production of some of Italy's most prestigious wines, including Chianti, Brunello di Montalcino, and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano.
Signature style
Tuscany is celebrated for its Sangiovese-based wines, which range from the bright and fruity Chianti to the powerful and age-worthy Brunello di Montalcino. The region also produces Super Tuscans, which are often blends of Sangiovese with international varieties, as well as fresh and aromatic white wines.
Climate
Mediterranean climate with hot summers and mild winters. The region's varied topography, including coastal areas and inland hills, creates a range of microclimates that are ideal for viticulture.
