[@ulalagowska8336]

thanks! I didn't realize that all of those come from Tuscany. usually you only talk about brunello and chiantis.

I just discovered Brunello di Montalcino a year ago and it surprised me how much nicer it was compared to most or all Californian and French wines that I've tried. I'm hooked, I try to buy bottles whenever I can.

très bonne video qui couvre bien les divers aspects du Sangiovese toscan. Juste un petit détail le bois usé pour le botti tuscans ne vient pas de Slovénie mais de Slavonie (jadis Esclavonie); région orientale de la Croatie coincée entre la Hongrie et la Serbie.

[@blntand1932]

Thank you very much for sharing great videos...

[@mikekenney8362]

Comprehensive breakdown. Even friendliest of sommelier don’t make recommendations this clear

[@BaldingEagle51]

I've discovered about myself that, when I think of the taste and smell of red wine, those wines have been big on Sangiovese. I like many wines, but to me this grape epitomizes red wine. This video explains some further things, like why I like Chianti but also found some that disappointed. Thank you for your enthusiasm and information on Tuscany and the wines made there. I appreciate it very much :)

Italain charm is disarming !

[@edwinc.duenki5738]

Thank you for the inspiration and your expertise!

[@mondarinvino107]

Very good video, really enjoyed it. One point for clarification. Isn't the minimum maturation time for brunello in fact 5 years (w /2 yrs in wood)?

[@AltiWineExchange]

here's the rule: Brunello must be made from 100 percent Sangiovese and aged for at least four years (five for Riserva wines). Two of these years must be spent in oak, and the wine must be bottled at least four months prior to commercial release.

[@arindamgupta3174]

Excellent!

[@Bogo6077]

[@anandrawut9346]

Isn’t it new oak give more oaky flavor then old oak ?

[@YouTubeJulien]

yes, new oak gives more oaky flavors than used oak, I made a video about oak in wine here kzbin.info/www/bejne/mIDTpp2Fe8ubqassi=O5kV14-aMtyXSmrg Cheers!

Since 2006 the Chianti Classico disciplinary prohibits the use of white grapes, this is allowed for Chianti but no producer I know uses them, evidently the White Malvasia which was used in the past together with Sangiovese and Canaiolo diluted the structure of the wine and made it unsuitable for aging, unlike what Viognier does with Syrah in the Cote Rotie or the Hermitage. On the use of 15% of Cab Sauv and Merlot in Chianti Classico it is used by producers who are not attentive to tradition and more interested in consumers with a delicate palate or for those who drink the scores of American critics and not the real Chianti Classico.
