Wine from Tuscany

Tuscany, which is also called Toscana, is probably the most notable wine region on the planet with the viticulture dating back to the 8th century BC and the Etruscans. Lying along the coast of Thyrrhenian, Toscana, or Tuscany, is known for Sangiovese Vino, Nobile di Montepulciano, Chianti, and Brunello di Montalcino grapes.

The region is also known for the dessert wine, Vin Santo. The fifth largest region in the country, Toscana is bordered by Emilia-Romagna in the north, Liguria to the North West, Umbria just to the east, with Lazio lying to the south. Go west, and you will find the Tyrrhenian Sea, which gives the area a warm Mediterranean climate.

Over 68% of the terrain in the region is quite hilly progressing inward to the Apennine Mountains along the border right alongside the Emilia-Romagna region. The hills have a tempering affect on the vines, especially with the heat in the summertime. Many of the vineyards planted at higher elevations along the hillsides.
The Sangiovese grapes need direct sunlight and they get plenty of that on the hillsides in the region of Tuscany. The majority of the vineyards in the region are located between 400–1500 feet. The higher elevations increase the temperature from day to night, which helps the grapes maintain the acidic balance, aromatic qualities, and sugar.
