Abstract

This article from Decanter provides a buying guide for the coastal region of Tuscany in Italy. The region has become known for its diverse wine regions and pioneering winemakers. The coastal terroirs are distinguished by a maritime climate, mild winters, warm summers, and constant sea breezes. The article highlights specific wine regions and their unique characteristics, such as the mineral white Vermentino from Colli di Luni and Candia dei Colli Apuani, the organic farming practices in the Lucca and Pisa hills, and the birthplace of SuperTuscans in Bolgheri. The article also mentions the Maremma region, which produces red wines like Morellino di Scansano and white wines featuring Vermentino. The success of these wines is attributed to innovative production regulations and the work of talented estates. The article concludes with a list of recommended wines from the region.
