From Chianti’s juicy fruit to the wild earthiness of Romagna, and to the depth and power of Montalcino, Sommeliers David Roby and Gianpaolo Paterlini guide you through the three distinct growing areas to help you understand what makes them unique, and what common thread Sangiovese displays.
Widely planted all over Italy, Sangiovese is one of the country’s most important red grapes. Its ability to excel in a broad range of terroirs and its potential to age gracefully for many decades both make Sangiovese one of the country’s most noble varieties.
