Sangiovese

winemaker's notes:
90% Sangiovese (aka "Morellino"), 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot. In local dialect, Sangiovese has long been known as "Morellino" a reference to "Morello," a breed of horse formerly used to work on farms in this coastal area of Tuscany. Farmers compared the rich dark color of the Sangiovese grape to the glossy, dark coat of the Morello horses.
Color: Ruby red
Bouquet: Intense aromas of ripe fruits
Taste: Smooth, well-structured and harmonious
Serving suggestions: This versatile red wine is a splendid companion for spicier dishes, all types of grilled, roasted and barbecued red meats and hearty stews.
