Supertuscan

The definition of Supertuscan, a term invented by the well-known American wine critic Robert Parker, refers to all the Tuscan wines that do not fall under the denomination of controlled and guaranteed origin. This is due to the use of international vines primarily, often alongside the typically Tuscan Sangiovese, and to the ageing in the cellar, often in French barriques, which follows the Bordeaux model. Enveloping, rich in substance and imposing in taste, these intense red wines succeed in exciting the most demanding and refined palates. Given their ability to develop varied and complex aromatic bouquets, they certainly represent a solid revolutionary interpretation of the Tuscan terroir, successfully elevating the centuries-old winemaking tradition to worldwide fame.
