What does Italy’s newest fi ne wine star do in his spare time? He makes this affordable single-vineyard Super Tuscan just for you … and it’s magnifi cent
Super Tuscan is the name wine writers gave to the rule- breaking, immense wines that revolutionised Italy’s fi ne wine scene in the 1980s. Today, young winemakers like Luca Marrone are taking things to a new level … literally.
Because Piastreto is one of the highest vineyards in all Tuscany, looking down on such legends as Sassicaia, whose wine is £500-plus a bottle. It’s owned by Luca’s great friend, Giorgio Cavallari – and this dynamic duo have teamed up to create a gorgeously rich, yet refi ned and elegant expression of one of Italy’s most spectacular vineyard terraces.
