As one of the most famous Italian grapes, Sangiovese sits on throne of the grape kingdom. The number of synonyms and clones that this charmer of a grape counts is many, which is why Sangiovese produces wines that can be quite diverse in taste.

Sangiovese is internationally famous for its Tuscan darlings: Chianti, Vino Nobile and last but certainly not least, Brunello de Montalcino. Often referred to as one of Italy’s three great B’s, alongside Barolo and Barbaresco, Brunello wines are complex and powerful with high tannins, dusty minerals, and bitter-cherry characteristics.

With so many different clones, Sangiovese wines will vary widely in style and quality and some might come off as tart and thin. A good Sangiovese is earthy and complex with a wonderful appeal of cherry and a subtle hint of tomato.
