In this video I discuss my favorite Super Tuscan wines that can be had for under $50. I’ve seen lots of videos where folks give you recommendations for alternatives to Sassicaia and Ornellaia where the wines are still over $100. Here are some recommendations for normal folks like you and me.
Let me know if you have some favorites in the comments.
Enjoy.

The high priced super Tuscans are SOOO over rated. They are far too similar to Cali cabs. Not alot of character. Sangiovese and Nebbiolo wines are infinitely more interesting, and have alot more personalities.
Had a bottle of Le Difese 2016 (so approx 8 years of age upon drinking) and there was a lot of expectation going into this tasting given the Sassicaia brand behind the winery. However it tasted light, diluted. On the other hand also had a Le Volte 2020 and it was wonderful, rich and incredibly aromatic and was cost roughly the same amount of $$$. Loaded up on a case of the Le Volte 2020 as a result
grattamacco bolgueri superiore… ufffffffffffff 2018
