Chianti Riserva Nipozzano is the symbol of the Tuscan winemaking tradition for Marchesi de ' Frescobaldi . A wine that comes from a skilful blend assembled by the team of the Marchesi de ' Frescobaldi winery, where, together with 90% Sangiovese, we also find small percentages of Malvasia Nera, Colorino, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. The grapes of these varieties are grown within the Chianti Rufina area, in vineyards located at a height above sea level between 250 and 500 meters, facing south-east.The terroir has an arid skeleton, composed of stones , limestone and clay. Once the grapes arrive in the cellar rooms used for vinification, they macerate for 25 days with frequent batonnage, carrying out both alcoholic and malolactic fermentation. Finally, the production process ends with aging, in which the wine rests for 24 months in barrique and then, after bottling, for another 3 months directly in glass.

Discover the best wines of Tuscany: an unforgettable experience!

Tuscany is one of Italy's most renowned wine regions, and for decades its excellent wines have been appreciated worldwide. Tuscan wines offer a range of flavors, from sweet and fruity to robust and intense. Furthermore, this region also boasts a rich traditional culture and a long history of winemaking, making it an ideal destination for tourists seeking an unforgettable food and wine experience.

Why is Tuscany famous for its wine?

Tuscany has a mild climate and rich, fertile soil, making it one of Italy's most suitable regions for wine production. The region is particularly known for its red wines, such as Chianti, Brunello di Montalcino, and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. These wines are made from Sangiovese grapes, the most widely grown grape in Tuscany. The region also has a rich tradition of white wines, such as Vernaccia di San Gimignano, Vermentino, and Trebbiano.

How to choose the right Tuscan wine?

When choosing a Tuscan wine, the first thing to consider is your personal taste. If you prefer sweet, fruity wines, a white wine like Vernaccia di San Gimignano or Vermentino is the right choice. If you prefer more robust, structured wines, then a red wine like Chianti or Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is better.

Furthermore, it's also important to consider the vintage of the wine you're purchasing. Wine quality depends on the climatic conditions during the period in which the grapes were grown, so before purchasing a bottle, it's a good idea to ask the producer about the vintage.

Where to find Tuscan wines?

Tuscan wines are readily available in supermarkets and specialty shops, but to savor the finest, highest-quality wines, you can also visit a winery. Tuscany boasts numerous wineries that organize guided tours and tastings to showcase their wines. Visiting one is a truly unique experience, as you have the opportunity to learn firsthand how wine is made and taste the different varietals.

What are the most famous wines of Tuscany?

Tuscany's most famous wines are Chianti, Brunello di Montalcino, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, and Vernaccia di San Gimignano. Chianti is a light and fruity red wine, while Brunello di Montalcino is a red wine with great intensity and structure. Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is a full-bodied and complex red wine, while Vernaccia di San Gimignano is a dry white wine with fruity and floral notes.

How to pair Tuscan wines?

Tuscan wines are ideal paired with meat, fish, vegetable, or cheese dishes. For example, Chianti pairs excellently with meat dishes such as roasts or braised meats, while Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is perfect with fish dishes such as cod or salmon. Brunello di Montalcino pairs well with vegetable dishes such as soups and broths, while Vernaccia di San Gimignano is ideal with aged cheeses.

How to store Tuscan wines?

Tuscan wines should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from heat and direct light. The ideal storage temperature is between 10 and 14°C. Red wines can be stored for up to 5 years, while white wines should not be stored for more than 2 years. Furthermore, it's important to remember that wines should be stored horizontally, so that the cork is always in contact with the wine.

Tuscan Wine Denomination

Tuscany is one of the most important wine regions in Italy and the world. The region is famous for its fine wines such as Chianti , Brunello di Montalcino , and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. These wines have either a controlled designation of origin (DOC) or a controlled and guaranteed designation of origin (DOCG). In this article, we'll explore the appellations of Tuscan wines and how they're produced.

Introduction to the Wine Denominations of Tuscany

Wine appellations are a classification system that guarantees the quality and geographical origin of Italian wines. There are three levels of appellation: Vino da Tavola, DOC, and DOCG. Table wines have no geographical or grape variety restrictions, while DOC and DOCG wines are produced in specific geographical areas and with specific grapes.

DOC wines of Tuscany

Tuscan DOC (Denominazione di Origine Controllata) wines are produced in specific areas of the region and are made with specific grapes. These wines have strict production requirements, such as grape yield, alcohol content, and minimum aging time.

Chianti DOCG

Chianti is one of the best-known and most popular Italian wines, produced primarily in the Chianti region, between the cities of Florence, Siena, and Arezzo. The wine is made primarily from Sangiovese grapes and may also contain other red grapes such as Canaiolo, Colorino, and Merlot. Chianti DOCG is a dry red wine that can be classified by its aging period: Chianti, Chianti Riserva, and Chianti Classico .

Brunello di Montalcino DOCG

Brunello di Montalcino is a DOCG wine produced in the Montalcino area, in the province of Siena. It is made with Sangiovese grapes, known locally as Brunello. The wine is aged for at least five years and must be produced exclusively with grapes from the Montalcino area.

Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG

Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is a DOCG wine produced in the Montepulciano area, in the province of Siena. It is made primarily from Sangiovese grapes and must be aged for at least two years. The name "Nobile" derives from this wine's reputation during the Renaissance.

IGT wines from Tuscany

IGT (Indicazione Geografica Tipica) is an Italian wine designation that indicates a broader geographical area than DOC and DOCG wines. These wines can be made with grape varieties other than those specified by the DOC and DOCG designations.

Super Tuscan

Super Tuscans are IGT wines produced in Tuscany that do not comply with the DOC and DOCG designations. These wines are often made with international grapes such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah, and are aged in French oak barrels. Super Tuscans are generally full-bodied and intense red wines, with a high concentration of fruit.

Tuscany is a world-renowned wine region, and its controlled and guaranteed designations of origin guarantee the quality of its wines. Tuscan DOC and DOCG wines are produced in specific geographical areas and with specific grapes, while Tuscan IGT wines have fewer restrictions in terms of geographical area and grape variety. Each appellation has its own unique characteristics and offers a different tasting experience. Regardless of which wine you choose, Tuscan wines are definitely a winning choice.
