This sangiovese is full bodied with a somewhat lingering sharp finish. The full aroma of this wine compliments its heavy body. There are strong notes of berries in its aroma that are carried through to the flavor. It has a pleasant complexity that you would need to be aware of when trying to pair it with food items. I would recommend this wine to go with heavier appetizers, rather than the entree itself. The richness of the wine would be difficult to properly match with a main dish without the combination becoming overly rich. Simple and refined is what I prefer.
