About
this Six-Bottle
Sampler:
If the Antinori triptych exemplifies the
region’s winemaking traditions, this
Tuscan collection invites you to sample its
terroirs and its appellations. We’re
offering a value-oriented sampler of standout
expressions that are approachable from all
angles. If reading this e-Letter has you
wanting to get in on the Super-Tuscan action,
La Mozza’s Aragone will give you a
taste of what all the unbridled excitement is
about. Le Macchiole's Rosso will perform a
similar service, plunging you into its
progressively Sanviovese blend. Do you seek
perfection? It doesn’t get better than
Tenuta dell'Ornellaia’s Le Volte;
despite its privileged pedigree, it’s
one of the most reliable values in the
Super-Tuscan class.
After you drink the ’01 Brunello from a
master of the
form—Talenti—you’ll need
to console yourself for your lack of
restraint. Sangiovese is always a welcome
pour for the table, and the ever-popular
Cacchiano flirts with the plummy Merlot for
a satisfying spin on Chianti, while the La
Sala, though modern in style, unabashedly
embraces the Sangiovese in all its
full-throttle glory. So if the featured
Super-Tuscans are a little beyond your reach
at the moment, go beyond the uproar and drink
in all that makes Toscana truly super.
