A trip to Tuscany in every sip.
The nose is very pretty, lifted, floral, perfumed like a meadow of wildflowers and wild herbs, especially fennel, thyme, oregano, while fruit spans the spectrum of fresh red and blackberry into very ripe dark plum fruit, with well-integrated oak influence.

A trip to Tuscany in every sip.
This food-friendly red blend is a can’t-miss pairing with Italian favorites like pizza, pasta, and meat lasagna.
From the standout soils of Tuscany comes this delicious and food-friendly red. The lovely, perfumed nose has aromas of a meadow brimming with wildflowers and fresh herbs like fennel, thyme, and oregano. On the palate, a heady mix of red fruit and blackberries gives way to ripe plum flavors and the added complexity of well-integrated oak.
True to its name, Under the Tuscan Sun is a wonderful example of the red blends so common to this region. A mix of 60% cabernet sauvignon, 30% merlot, and 10% syrah, it’s an exciting newcomer to the market. The grapes were grown in soil that had been allowed to rest for more than 40 years in order to accumulate more of the organic matter that leads to natural fertility. It represents the successful outcome of a mission to cultivate limited production vines where the land is given its voice through the wines it yields.
Pair with full-flavored, nutty Piave cheese for the perfect starter.
