I have a major soft spot for Governo, a style of wine made of all Sangiovese but where about 20% of the grapes are passito (rasined grapes). Added at time of fermentation. This effect adds color, alcohol, body to Sangiovese. Making it so much more enjoyable while young. — 2 months ago

This a true value wine. The kind you don’t find anymore. Full, with chocolate, leather and ripe red fruit. Decent finish too. Cheers. — a year ago

Cor escura com densidade mediana. O aroma é de fruta, como de uva passas, mas sem parecer velho, mas também de folhas. Na boca é um vinho equilibrado, deixa uma boa sensação sem acidez ou taninos marcados. Não é um vinho surpreendente, mas um ótimo vinho. — 2 years ago

Much less than 1% of wine from the Chianti region is made in the Governo process, a dying art. Only produced to evoke a sense of nostalgia among those from another era… This is my nth time trying it and I don’t feel the nostalgia but only care and dedication behind the process. — 9 months ago
