Old World and New World Sangiovese Explorer Tasting Set Shipping Included
It is the most planted red grape variety in Italy: Sangiovese. But did you know that Sangiovese is also grown outside of its historical birthplace of Italy? Places in the new world, like California are actually producing fun iterations of Sangiovese, like this one from Clos des Amis. But of course, any discussion of Sangiovese would be remiss to skip over one from Romagna, along the Adriatic Coast like Braschi’s Costone Sangiovese Riserva. And finally, staying in Tuscany, we move south to the wilds of Maremma, for La Maliosa’s Tarconte sangiovese crafted naturally by a woman winemaker. What differences can you sense in these Sangiovese wines?
Shipping included for orders in the Continental US with this set, so feel free to add on other Sangiovese wines from Italy to try!
