Rosehip, Morello cherries and cranberries. Wafts of kiss peppers, birds eye chillies and rose petals. Sage leaf and rosemary stem. Terra cotta and nutmeg. A slippery palate with expected high reaches of acidity and fine dusty tannins. An approachable Sangiovese with a subtle firmness and thirst quenching bite. Drink now and will cellar 3-5 years. A wine that would be perfect with a great woodfired Margarita pizza.
