Adnams Tuscan Red, La Cappella, IGT Toscana

A good dollop of Merlot adds body to the lively red fruit flavours of Sangiovese.

The Tuscan red is made for us by Castello di Volpaia. Volpaia is the touchstone by which all other Tuscan wines should be judged. There's a refinement and simplicity about their Chianti which owes much the altitude of this ancient estate and the talented personalities involved: Giovanella Stanti, husband Carlo Mascheroni. This blends a majority of the native Sangiovese grape with a good dollop of Merlot which adds body to the lively red fruit flavours.
