    Hi Jimmy, thank you for these videos, very useful. Just to clarify, only one producer from Bolgheri DOC uses Sangiovese in its blends. All the other 65 producers use bordeaux blends. Actually it was proven that Sangiovese in Bolgheri doesn’t express so well as it does in other wine areas. Super tuscan is also a larger concept that doesn’t just rely on Cabernet Sauvignon. I hope it helps.

    Great content. Quick Q: why is it "Saint" Estephe but "San" Julien?

    • @WineWithJimmy
      @WineWithJimmy  Před rokem +1

      Hi Gav, for these two regions, because the Estephe begins with a vowel, in French you link the two words by pronouncing the t at the end of Saint. but with Julien, because it begins with a consonant you don't pronounce the T

    In the textbook, it says in Australia Merlot is typically found, blended with Cabernet Sauvignon

    • @WineWithJimmy
      @WineWithJimmy  Před 3 lety +1

      For sure - wherever you find Merlot you'll find CS - and they'll be often blended

      The "new" Cru Bourgeois classification was released on 20 February 2020, bringing back the three levels.
