Vanitoso — a pure expression of Sangiovese
While many Tuscan blends mix several varieties, Vanitoso IGT Toscano Rosso relies entirely on Sangiovese — the most widespread and beloved red variety in Tuscany. The result is a wine that shows the grape in its purest form: cherry, dried mint, a light dusting of spice.

Frequently asked questions
Why is it 100% Sangiovese rather than a blend? The producer chose to show the variety in its pure form, without the influence of other grapes — a style increasingly favored by Tuscan wineries for authenticity.
How does it differ from Chianti? Unlike Chianti DOCG, the IGT Toscano designation gives the winemaker more freedom outside the strict rules of the classic appellation, while still preserving Tuscan character.
The vineyards are located on hilly terrain with good sun exposure — a condition that’s key to the full ripening of Sangiovese.
Terroir and production philosophy
Sangiovese is a temperamental variety — it needs specific conditions to reveal its full potential, which is exactly why the hilly terrain of Tuscany is considered its natural home. The varying altitude and exposure of the vineyards let producers choose the precise moment for harvest according to each individual plot.
With Vanitoso IGT Toscano Rosso, the approach is minimalist — a focus on the purity of the variety, with no other grapes involved, which demands extremely precise work in the vineyard. Every berry has to reach optimal ripeness on its own, since there’s no other variety to compensate for shortcomings.
This dedication to authenticity is why so many wine lovers seek out exactly these 100% varietal Tuscan selections.
The perfect occasion
Store in a cool place between 10–15°C, horizontally, to keep the cork moist and the wine in optimal condition until it’s time to open.
