TASTING NOTES: This retrospective gave me the opportunity to taste the excellent 2015 vintage side by side with the highly anticipated 2016 vintage. These two years are famously in a tight race across Tuscany for supremacy. I'm ready to tip my hat at 2016. In comparison, the 2015 Flaccianello della Pieve is slightly broader in the shoulders and heavier in the gait. There is more meat on these bones, and the 2015 vintage presented vintners with near-perfect growing conditions in which one textbook part of the vegetative cycle transitioned directly to the next. The wine is dark, exuberant and profound, and the quality of the tannins is superb, fine and firm. One difference with the 2016 vintage is that the 2015 is a tad more accessible and ready. You can wait and cellar it for thirty years, or pop the cork sooner if you don't have the patience to wait.

Tuscany

About Tuscany

Tuscany, nestled in central Italy, stands as a beacon of excellence in the world of wine. Its rich viticultural history and diverse terroir have given rise to an array of renowned wines cherished by enthusiasts worldwide.

At the heart of Tuscan winemaking is Chianti Classico, an emblematic red crafted primarily from Sangiovese grapes. Its spirited profile, adorned with red fruit tones and lively acidity, epitomizes the region's winemaking prowess.

Venturing into Montalcino, Brunello di Montalcino emerges as a tour de force, exclusively fashioned from Sangiovese. With its bold demeanor and intricate layers of cherry, plum, and earthy nuances, it commands reverence among connoisseurs.

Meanwhile, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, hailing from the eponymous region, captivates with its opulent fusion of Sangiovese, rendering a tapestry of dark fruit, spice, and earthy allure.

Innovative and audacious, Super Tuscans defy convention, blending indigenous Sangiovese with international varietals like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, or Syrah. Their bold expressions and unparalleled quality fetch admiration and acclaim, elevating the region's prestige.

For indulgent finales, Vin Santo, a luscious dessert wine, tantalizes palates with its honeyed sweetness and hints of dried fruit and nuts. Meanwhile, Vernaccia di San Gimignano, Tuscany's venerable white wine, enchants with its crisp acidity, floral bouquet, and citrus charm.

Carmignano, a hidden gem, marries Sangiovese with Cabernet Sauvignon, yielding a wine of remarkable structure, depth, and aging potential, showcasing the region's propensity for excellence.

Such is the tapestry of Tuscan wine—a mosaic of tradition, innovation, and unparalleled quality—each bottle a testament to the region's enduring legacy and unwavering commitment to vinicultural mastery.
