One of the jewels in the crown of your Italian wine collection, this standard-bearing Brunello will make real wine-knowledge royalty out of even the most Mia Thermopolous-like drinkers. At the CastelGiocondo estate high above Montalcino, a garnet-red wine is born of adverse conditions: full-bodied, refined and pretty, an instant classic. Critics love its silky, fruity, minerally refinement and you will, too —
When you're feeling like royalty but your bank account is feeling more like a pauper, drink this big-bang-for-your-bucks Italian red made at a real life castle. Critics say it's one of few wines in the world that offer this level of quality for the money. Bianchi is one of the first Italian producers to take white grapes out of his Chianti, making this vintage a celebration of all that red fruit in what critic Antonio Galloni called "a regal expression of sangiovese." Stock up by the case when times are flush to enjoy when they're not so much — for richer or for poorer, right?
Buon Natale in a bottle! Celebrate the divine chemistry of your coupling with this treasure of an Italian red, the perfect bottle to pop on a cold winter night during your first holiday season together. Bright and tangy red fruit and herb flavors dominate this Sangiovese-driven experience, named after the winery's 4th century church and the product of innovative viticulture nerd-dom. Estate-grown grapes from four vineyards averaging at least 25 years old, each aged separately in stainless steel for almost a month before being blended at the state-of-the-art cellars, come together to create a truly joyful vintage.
As iconic an Italian beauty as Sofia Loren barefoot in a fountain, Brunello means consistently intense and elegant Tuscan red wine with legs for days — and a pistol of a personality. It's an earthy, sexy, smooth and bright red wine made from old vine Sangiovese Grosso grapes by the Franceschi Family. Bloomberg just named it one of their 20 Wines You Need To Drink This Fall — we say pop it open with truffled mac & cheese while watching cinematic classics on your 5-year anniversary, or host a classic Florentine feast for friends with Fellini playing in the background.
