Sangiovese is the main grape component of Chianti, one of Italy’s best known wines. Our Sangiovese grapes originate in the hills between the Provinces of Siena and Florence within the renowned Chianti area of Tuscany. This area is known for a warm, sunny growing season, with substantial temperature differential between day and night. Such conditions produce flavorful, rich grapes. The cultivation of these grapes can be traced back through the centuries to ancient Greece and Rome. In fact, the word Sangiovese is derived from Latin “sanguis Jovis,” or the blood of Jupiter.
From the Wine Maker – “Ecco Domani Chianti is a clear, ruby-red color, with a deeply fruited bouquet of cherries and fresh raspberries. This wine is lively and fresh on the palate, with soft, rounded tannins followed by a long, fine finish.”
The fresh, well-structured character of this wine makes it an ideal complement to all types of pasta, hors d’eouvres, and red or white meats.
