Searching for Super Sangiovese | Part III

[@infinite_vortex]

Wonderful video, I love this- documentary style approach. Professional, informative, and fun! Speaking of fun, I just paired a Sherry with strawberry waifers. It does indeed sound like a random pairing, but I have to tell you, it tastes amazing together!

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Many thanks and I don't doubt that it is a great pairing. What kind of Sherry?

[@Blair338RUM]

Really good point you made regarding tasting with normal people who aren’t wine geeks. The lady made some astute observations as she is obviously very intelligent. Always nice to guide people on a topic you love.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

She is bright and you are right!

Fantastic episode! Easily over 1 million views if Serena is on the thumbnail.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

🤣😂😅

[@BigBobDookie]

2 million if she's in a bikini. That's so f$#*ed up but true.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Could be true but let’s give her some respect!

Thanks for this!! You turned me on to vino nobile! Chianti and Brunello get all the love for pure sangiovese so it's great to see this region get some recognition. Also happy to see your channel growing. Well deserved!

[@drmatthewhorkey]

I am so happy to hear that. Thanks a lot, there's still a LOONNGG way to go.

[@VladVexler]

Great work and a very lovely watch!

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Hahahaha it’s a simple timex in this video

[@oscarhubinette7080]

I will pass by that area of Italy in some weeks and booked a visits to Poliziano direct after looking at this video. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Enjoyyyy!! Thanks a lot for stopping by the video

[@hocheye]

Great video of the grape I love the most, Sangiovese! Nice wines and so great to see the wineries.Must get to Italy.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Ahhh a fellow Sangio lover… I have four blind tasting videos coming up featuring Sangiovese!

[@andrewcarson9981]

Thank you for the Tuscan series videos! Looks like you had a blast! Makes me want to travel and try more vino nobile now!

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Ahhhh nice, I love Sangiovese in all forms. Thanks for watching

[@Ruirspirul]

excellent video Mathew! I was wondering is it normal for Italian winemakers to use wild yeast? had chianti classico from big company and I was so surprised to read that it was fermented on a wild yeast…

[@drmatthewhorkey]

It depends on the producer, many try to.

[@stroopwafel6141]

I just returned from holiday in Italy ( luckily no mouthcaps anymore). Now I want to return to Tuscany again. Yeah, Cortona, been there three times. Nice to see the folks at DEI.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Hope you make it back there soon!

[@nataliameylunas117]

A beautiful and thought-provoking video. I am happy to hear the focus you put on sustainability. Fattoria della Aiola has started its journey on this road some time ago.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Ahhh I didn’t know that!!

@@drmatthewhorkey I look forward to seeing you in Florence soon and giving you an update about @Fattoria della Aiola

wonderful videos my friend! cheers!

Thank you sir! Good to hear from you

Thanks again for a great video! I’m heading to Tuscany in a month so you have given me lots of ideas! 🍷

Let me know where you end up visiting!!

Very nice behind the scene tour.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

thank you

[@GoFishingOrGoHome]

You should do a series on pinot noir in burgundy. Especially showcasing how they grow the pinot noir in narrow rows and all of the old school wine making techniques?

[@drmatthewhorkey]

I hope to in the future!

Hi Mat, I'm a Hungarian wine lover following your channel for a while, If you had to name your 3 most favorite sangiovese-based wines regardless the price and indicating the vintage, what would they be?

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Whatever is in front of me when I’m in Tuscany ahahha

[@OnTheStreetsSir]

Where's the scene where she tries the Poliziano Vino Nobile as perfume as you asked?

[@drmatthewhorkey]

She is way to classy for that, she was just humoring me…

[@colejohnson42]

Hi Dr. Horkey - we have the privilege of going for 3 days in June while traveling Europe for our honeymoon. Do you have a recommendation for a couple of must visit wineries? Thanks in advanced.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Ahhh have a great time! You’ll find plenty of resources on the channel, all up to your wine preferences

[@colejohnson42]

@@drmatthewhorkey we chose Antinori and Avignonesi. Thanks!

[@MonteNoahEstate]

Curious..what month was the harvest?

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Late September

[@stevenholt4936]

Love Sangiovese in all its glory: Chianti; Brunello; Vino Nobile. As for so-called super Tuscans - why?

[@drmatthewhorkey]

I’m sorry but I like them! 😅😂🤣

[@stevenholt4936]

@@drmatthewhorkey fair enough. I can't say I'm an expert - can't afford to be at those prices. I have drunk Sassicaia and Tignanello in the past; they didn't leave an indelible impression, except on my wallet. However, Ornellaia is on my bucket list but not right at the top.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

There are a lot of ‘Super Tuscan’ blends that are affordable

[@TassosT]

@@drmatthewhorkey and it's good some Tuscan wines stay out of the "SuperTuscans" list for some time for everybody to be able to buy them

I can’t stand that one on so many levels it’s absolutely horrible I wouldn’t drink that wine if it was free

Which one?

You can drink the worse wine in the world sitting next to Serena and probably give it a 90. 😂😂😂

"Balance" an overused term?? Oh, no; not at all.
