The disciplinare, the place, the label
01
DOC, DOCG, IGT: what the badges mean
Italian wine law sorts bottles into a pyramid. DOCG sits at the top: tightly drawn boundaries, prescribed grapes, mandatory ageing, government tasting before release. DOC is the same idea with looser thresholds. IGT (Indicazione Geografica Tipica) is broader still, requiring only that 85% of the grapes come from the named territory.
Toscana is in the IGT tier. That is not a quality verdict, it is a description of how much freedom the producer has at vinification and ageing.

Food Pairing
Acidity matching
Strong match
Pasta with ragù
Its good acidity lifts the meat and the sauce of a ragù, red or white.
Try with: Pappardelle with ragù
Tannin softening
Good match
Roast and grilled meat
The balanced tannins soften against the protein of roast red meat or grilled white meat.
Try with: Roast beef
Salt balance
Good match
Cured meats and cheese
Its red fruit sits well beside the salt of cured meats and cheeses aged a few months.
Try with: Salami and a medium-aged cheese
Drinking + cellar
Serving temperature
16-18°C
Aim for the cooler end on a warm day; warmer end opens up more aromatics.
