Super Tuscan: it’s used to describe some of Tuscany’s top red wines, such as Tignanello, Sassicaia, Ornellaia, Solaia. They are high quality red wines, normally in the Bordeaux style, made from non-indigenous varieties (Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Sangiovese, Syrah) and using blends not allowed under Tuscan appellation laws.
Bolgheri DOC: The first bottle of Sassicaia was produced in 1968, when in 1944 instead, the Marquis Mario Incisa della Rocchetta decided to plant the first Cabernet vineyard, realising the great potential of the territory. The wine country is restricted to the northern part of the Maremma, in the area of Bolgheri and Castagneto Carducci. The minimum alcoholic strength is 12.5%, and it is produced with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Syrah and Sangiovese in different percentages.
