In the wine world, Italy is known for its abundance of indigenous grape varieties - nearly 400. Of all those, sangiovese rises above in quantity, as Italy's most planted variety, and in quality (except for nebbiolo). The sangiovese grape is most responsible for the great wines of Tuscany.
The Tuscan hills seem to have been created to nurture this grape to its essence. High-quality wines made with sangiovese typically exhibit deep, bright cherry aromas and flavors with firm, dry structure and earthy qualities.
