Sangiovese is one of the most well-known and widely planted grapes in Italy, particularly in the central region of Tuscany where it is the primary grape in wines such as Chianti and Brunello di Montalcino. It is also grown in other parts of Italy and around the world, including in California, Argentina, and Australia.
The Sangiovese grape is known for producing wines with high acidity, firm tannins, and a medium body. These wines often have flavors of cherries, blackberries, and earthy undertones. Sangiovese can be a versatile grape, producing everything from easy-drinking table wines to complex, age-worthy bottles.
One of the unique characteristics of Sangiovese is its ability to reflect the terroir in which it is grown. For example, wines made from Sangiovese grapes grown in the Chianti Classico region of Tuscany will have different flavors and aromas compared to those grown in the Montalcino area.
Sangiovese is also commonly blended with other grape varieties, such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah, to add complexity and depth to the wine.
Overall, Sangiovese is a fascinating and versatile grape that has captured the attention of wine lovers around the world for its unique flavor profile and ability to express the terroir in which it is grown.
