The panoply of new releases from Tuscany strikes a deep vein of quality, with a trio of potentially stellar vintages on offer. Marked by periods of both dryness and rain, the generally warmer 2021, 2020 and 2019 harvests give fans of Tuscan wines plenty of opportunities for exploration, whether you’re looking for designated areas such as Chianti Classico, Montepulciano and Bolgheri or seeking out the region’s many super Tuscans. Read the rest of Wine Spectator senior editor Bruce Sanderson’s tasting report for more on the latest vintages, including scores and tasting notes for top bottlings and good values in Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and beyond from Antinori, Masseto, Ornellaia, Isole & Olena and more.
