A nice food Sangiovese, this wine has bright cherry and blueberry flavors. It is medium bodied and low on the oak spectrum.

The Swiss Army knife of table wines, this Sangiovese is the perfect accompaniment to any meal - light of body, muted fruits, slight tinged acidity.

Very oaky for a Sangiovese. Not as much earth and dark fruit as a Tuscan. Much more of the barrel/wood.

Great wine- nice garnet red, aromas of mulled berries, light bodied with a raspberry finish.
