Description
In a nutshell:
A ripe and refreshing Italian Sangiovese from the unheralded Adriatic province of Molise
The lowdown:
Molise is a remote and sparcely populated province of Italy sandwiched between Abruzzo and Puglia which somewhat overshadow it when it comes to wine. However there are some excellent estates here, like Di Majo Norante, producing good quality, good value wines. Their Sangiovese so impressed us when we first tasted it we had to add it to our list where it's been a fixture for several years now. The grapes are hand harvested and aged in a mix of stainless steel and large oak barrels to achieve a good balance of smoothness and softness while preserving the primary fruit characteristics of the Sangiovese. It's got a lovely red cherry aroma with a touch of mediterranean herbs on the nose. And with the velvety tannins and lovely fruit with a hint of leather and spice there isnt much more you could ask for the price.
When to drink:
A crowd pleasing, easy to drink wine that's a fail-safe winner. Pairs really well with Bolognese sauces, or mature cheeses.
