Would not have blind guessed a Sangiovese. Less chalky than a Tuscan. More Syrah-like.

Beautiful brick red with plenty of bite. Straight and to the point. Excellent.

Bright cherry, cranberry, anise and rosemary aromas with hints of vanilla and earth. Full flavor on the palate, with ripe figs, cherry and plum. Round up with savory notes of sage, rosemary, vanilla and fresh mushrooms. Balanced red with pleasant tannins, lots of fruit, and savory notes. We enjoyed this wine with a Bacalao spread and toasted bread. Delicioso!

Napa valley winery. Castello di Amorosa. Subtle, perfect for a wide range.
