ABOUT THIS WINE:
Mannaggia All'Alba
Super Tuscan Red Blend
Winemakers in Italy are true artists, the Michelangelo’s and da Vinci’s of their craft. Wines that come from the country are beloved throughout the world for their stylistic diversity, ability to pair with all types of foods, and unique varietals. Italy’s classification system regulates the wine industry so that all producers regardless of size are held to the same standards. In the early 1990s, the IGT classification (Indicazione Geografica Tipica) was created to allow more freedom and creativity for winemakers.

WINE REGION:
Toscana IGT
Italy's rich food and wine heritage is nowhere better demonstrated than historic Tuscany. You can eat and drink like a king here—ideally on a grand terrazza overlooking medieval hillsides strewn with olive and cypress trees. From mouthwatering whites for sipping with antipasti to sophisticated reds that elevate the meat dishes of Florence (and of course leaving room for sweet Vin Santo with dessert), Tuscany has it all. Sangiovese is the region's star grape, giving us not just Chianti, but also Brunello di Montalcino, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano and the epic Super Tuscan blends. The IGT (Indicazione Geografica Tipica) classification system was created to provide more freedom and ease for winemaking within Italy. Wines under the IGT classification are regulated on the region of origin—where within the country grapes are grown—instead of varietals or wine styles as DOC and DOCG laws focus on.
