Brancaia, a produced who has eschewed the traditional DOC or DOCG wines, has always focused on the so-called Super Tuscans. What makes this wine remarkable is that it is their first foray into the Chianti Classico DOCG. And it’s a winner. A blend of mostly (80%) Sangiovese and Merlot it delivers gutsy earthy flavors in addition to ripe black and red fruit notes. It has an international feel to it, without losing its Tuscan roots.
