Sangiovese Wines

Sangiovese is a red grape variety primarily grown in Italy, particularly in the Tuscany region, where it produces Chianti and Brunello di Montalcino wines. It produces medium to full-bodied wines with high acidity and flavors of red cherry, plum, and herbs, often with a touch of earthiness. The ABV for Sangiovese wines typically ranges from 12.5-14.5%. Its popularity is due to its ability to produce complex, age-worthy wines that reflect the unique terroir of Tuscany.

The varied soils and climates of Tuscany provide ideal conditions for Sangiovese, allowing the grape to develop its characteristic acidity and flavors. Sangiovese is often used to produce both youthful, vibrant wines and more structured, long-lived versions. Its ability to reflect the nuances of its growing region and its potential for producing some of Italy's most prestigious wines ensure Sangiovese's continued significance and popularity among wine enthusiasts.
