The top seminar of this fine edition of\u00a0Thoroughbred Sangiovese<\/a>\u00a0was the comparison of Lands of Sangiovese and Burgundy by\u00a0Armando Castagno<\/a>, beautifully directed by\u00a0Davide Bonucci<\/a>, in the magnificent location of the Santa Maria della Scala museum complex, overlooking the Cathedral of Siena<\/span><\/p>\n

Pinot Noir is to Burgundy as Sangiovese is to Tuscany (in its expressions of Chianti and Montalcino) and Romagna: 4 Sangioveses with 4 Burgundy wines discovering similarities and diversities.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pinot noir and Sangiovese are both ubiquitous grape varieties, that is, they are planted in different areas of the world, but they are able to perform best only in the habitats most suited to them, wines that therefore have in common an 'innate ability to interpret terroir, and on the other hand are complicated in the vineyard and in the cellar.<\/span><\/p>\n

For color, both wines are always transparent with ruby tones when young, which will turn to garnet with evolution. Pinot noir has an aromatic profile while Sangiovese has a nice floral quality, and much more pronounced tannins.<\/span><\/p>\n

The environmental factor, i.e., the land, the human factor, i.e., the style, and the time factor always play a key role. Marly and complex soils for pinot noir and different geological contexts for sangiovese from galestro to alberese and sandstone. The style differs in terms of the timing of maturation, the quality of the woods and the time of release, and finally the time factor: after 12-14 years the wines aged in the two territories become closer.<\/span><\/p>\n

Montalcino, with its strong rural and peasant soul, expresses one of the Italian territories with the best vineyard savoir faire: the real pearls are those that speak Montalcinese.<\/span><\/p>\n

In Burgundy, the C\u00f4te Chalonnaise is a continuation of the C\u00f4te d'Or and has five municipal appellations (AOC):<\/span><\/p>\n
