Sangiovese Wines

Buy Sangiovese Wines online from Great Wines Direct

Sangiovese is actually relatively rare outside of Italy, which may surprise you. Sangiovese has fewer global plantings than even the lesser-known Mourvedre.

The Sangiovese grape can quickly change its genetic makeup to meet the climate, making it somewhat of a chameleon. All around Italy, there are numerous mutations of the type, which produce wines with distinctly distinctive tastes.

Sangiovese wine provides something for everyone, from the delicate flowery strawberry scents of Montefalco Rosso to the profoundly black and tannic wines of Brunello di Montalcino.

Sangiovese is a chameleon-like grape that can take on a variety of flavours, ranging from highly earthy and rustic, as is the case with many Chianti Classico, to round and fruit-forward. No matter where it is cultivated, it always has a cherry flavour with softer tomato overtones.
