I called it early, at the end of vintage if I remember rightly, and said that the Sangio was my favourite parcel of fruit we got into the winery and it has certainly carried on through to the wine in bottle. Unlike a lot of Sang on the market, the elevage (resting time in barrel) and oak this wine sees sets it up as a more serious example, with ageing potential. It will definitely reward anyone with the patience to decant it a little before opening.
Tasting Notes
—
+
LOOKS LIKE: Liquid Bricks.
SMELLS LIKE: Morello cherries, dusty, dark chocolate, blood oranges and warm spices.
TASTES LIKE: Soft and full palate weight with supportive tannins to the finish. Playful and active – it lights up all the parts of your mouth.
DRINK WITH: Porchetta, BBQ, eggplant parmigiana.
CELLAR UNTIL: Up to 15 years. Decant 1-2 hours prior to serving.
