Palate & Finish
02On the palate, this Sangiovese delivers a refined structure, showcasing bright acidity that perfectly balances its savory cherry fruit and a touch of balsamic complexity. The finish is elegantly persistent, leaving a lingering impression of fine-grained tannins and a delicate minerality.

It also shines alongside roasted lamb with rosemary and garlic.
