Fantini Sangiovese Terre di Chieti

In the Abruzzo region, more precisely in the province of Chieti, lies the medieval castle of Ortona. High-quality wines have been produced here since the 14th century, enjoying great prestige at many aristocratic tables even then. Today, these wines are produced under the direction of Farnese Vini, a company that focuses particularly on local, indigenous grape varieties, but also on international varieties. One example is the wine made entirely from Sangiovese, the most widespread red grape variety. After a 10-day maceration, the wine is further aged in large wooden barrels and stainless steel tanks before being bottled after approximately six months. Color: deep, bright ruby ​​red. Aroma: The fruity scent of sour cherries and strawberries caresses the nose when smelling a glass of this Sangiovese, accompanied by very subtle oak notes. Taste: The Sangiovese has a well-balanced flavor with medium tannins and a pronounced acidity. The fruity aromas are clearly expressed.
