Grapes
Merlot
A Tuscan hill town with a particularly strong affinity for Syrah.
Syrah leads the red blend; Merlot is a blending partner, and varietal Syrah is also made.
Blackberries, pepper and savoury spice, often with a generous texture.
Chardonnay, Grechetto and Sauvignon Blanc.
From rounded orchard-fruit Chardonnay to brisker, more aromatic whites; look at the grape named on the bottle.
Cortona offers a different red-wine conversation from Sangiovese country: Syrah is central to its red blend and a notable varietal wine.
Cortona. 1 wine in Ontario.
