Romagna is to many foodies the true heart of northern Italian cuisine. Winelovers should take note of Romagna as well. Here, the Sangiovese grape has its own inimitable expression. Few wines we sample from anywhere are as articulate-that is-express their nature with such clarity and power. If you love Tuscan Sangiovese in any form, you should try this wine! The 2006 San Valentino Sangiovese di Romagna is categorical Sangiovese.
This is the real deal: PURE cherry and berry Sangiovese fruit delivered with eye-popping vivacity, interest and depth. The concentration of fruit is notable, lending the wine a presence rarely seen at this price level. Nuances of flowers, earth and herbs are delicately interwoven into the wine's well-balanced, ripe red fruits. Sip after sip, this bottle rewards you with wholesale enjoyment. This is a wine you will want to buy by the case and savor over the next 2-3 years!
