winemaker's notes:

This 100% Sangiovese is intense and bright ruby red in color, with aromas of ripe cherry and strawberry. The excellent balance between fruit and acidity, and the slightly spicy notes on the finish are the unmistakable hallmarks of this wine. The soft and silky tannins frame the pleasant texture of this pure Sangiovese.

I would buy this wine again

this wine needs at least 1 to 2 more years in bottle, silky tannins, high concentration of fruit. Different taste of sangiovese, good opportunity cost.

 I would buy this wine again

One of the best Sangioveses I've ever tasted, including the 2001's I sampled in Tuscany last year. This is a big red for a little price. Brunello lovers on a budget will appreciate this one!

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.

Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
