Tuscany | Wine region
First and foremost, of course, is Chianti, which, with around one million hectoliters per year, is one of the most widely produced quality wines in Italy. In the coastal region of Maremma, which has been playing an increasingly important role in Tuscany for several years, there is a boom in international varieties in addition to another Sangiovese variety called Morellino di Scansano. Still in vogue are Ornellaia, Tignanello or Sassicaia. Marchese Antinori is considered the inventor of this type of wine. In 1971, he launched Tignanello, a so-called regionally untypical wine, which, contrary to the specifications of the time, was aged in barriques and contained no white grapes, but a good 15 percent of French varieties. These wines gained cult status within a few years and many of them still have it. This elite area called Bolgheri is one of the most interesting and emerging in Italy. - Gerardo [TS07/22]
