The last 30 years have seen Tuscany transformed from beautiful backwater to beating heart of Italian wine. It hasn’t been an easy evolution and it isn’t over yet… As Sangiovese challenges the dominance of the mighty Super Tuscans (their story told by Jane Anson in the book), 11 new Chianti Classico terroir zones are set to vie with the climats of burgundy for vineyard transparency, and the mountain wines, Montalcino and its once-illustrious cousin Montepulciano, renew their rivalry. On Tuscany describes all of this and more… from the rugged vinescapes of Bolgheri and coastal Maremma, to the hidden roads of Chianti and the terraces of Giglio, voiced by much-loved authors, cutting-edge specialists and Italy’s newest Masters of Wine.
