Tuscany Wines

Tuscan wines run deep into the cultural identity of Italy. This very popular Italian wine region stands tall with its iconic Italian wines such as Chianti, Brunello di Montalcino and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. True authentic Tuscan wines will use its signature red wine grape Sangiovese alongside small amounts of Canaiolo and Colorino. Despite the relatively recent appearance of Merlot or Cabernet Sauvignon in Tuscan wines, native varieties still reign supreme. 

Merlot Wines

Merlot is an iconic red grape variety from Bordeaux, France. It is predominantly present in red wines from the iconic wine regions of Saint-Émilion and Pomerol, both from Bordeaux. Besides being a great calming companion for Cabernet Sauvignon in the renowned Bordeaux blends, Merlot stands besides other French wine varieties such as Tannat (in Cotes de Gascogne), Malbec (in Cahors) and sometimes Petit Verdot. In Tuscany, Merlot sometimes stands beside Sangiovese.
