Sangiovese
Punchy, vibrant and bold
- Sangiovese can be bottled by itself but can also be blended with other varieties.
- In Chianti, it’s paired with the Italian varieties Canaiolo and Colorino.
- In other parts of Tuscany and beyond, it can be blended with French varieties such as Merlot, Syrah, and Cabernet Sauvignon.
- Sangiovese always has a wonderful red-fruit core and bright backbone of acidity.
- Dried herbs and a hint of earth give it some complexity and make it one of the best wines to pair with dinner!
Sangiovese varies quite a bit. It can be an easy-going wine with bright red fruit and dried herbs or a brooding wine packed with dark fruits, leather, and spice. It’s a great choice for those who enjoy Syrah or Tempranillo but want something with more vibrancy.
