Tasting - Monte Degli Angeli Sangiovese

Name: Monte Degli Angeli Sangiovese
Variety: Sangiovese
Region: Puglia
Country: Italy
Year: 2013
Price: $7.95

Winery ReviewThe aromas are rich and dark, with lots of black cherry and a hint of balsamic. In the mouth the wine is round and energetic, with cherry and black raspberry fruit complemented by hints of damp earth. If you like Sangiovese-based wines like Chianti or our best-selling Colsanto from Umbria, you'll love this! The wine is ripe, fresh, and fruit-driven with a wonderful dash of earthy complexity at the end. Buy it by the case and drink with pizza, grilled poultry, and pasta.

My Review: This wine was one of the favorites of the tasting and I can see why. The aroma of dark berries really came through on the nose. Dark berries really come through on the palate and I even thought of sparkling apple cider which was very unexpected. This is one that I would enjoy again. 

I did not try this with food.
