I know zilch about Sangiovese, except how to spell it. This is one helluva red wine. Deep red with a touch of purple plus an aroma and taste that is very, very enjoyable. I now poured half the bottle into a 375ml and drank the other half. It was gone before I realised it.
I was sorely tempted to open the second half, but resisted.
I strongly recommend those who like good,big reds to try one. I am glad I bought a case.

nice to see someone flying the flag of a upcoming variety. When Sangio is good it is captivating. Fruit can be boht rich and savoury, lovely colour and distinctively different to shiraz and cab. thanks for your review.
