FOOD MATCHING NOTE:

A classic for partnering with Italian icons like pizza and pasta with tomato sauce, it is also a top pick for grilled steak, roasted poultry, and pork chops and remains completely at home with aged Parmesan or Provolone cheese finds.

TASTING NOTE:

This Sangiovese is bright, ruby red in colour. The bouquet opens with ripe dark cherries, violets and plums, complemented by a hint of spice. This wine has wonderful structure and the palate is typically rich and full complemented by racy acidity and characteristically fine, supple tannins. The finish is flavourful and persistent.
