Sangiovese grape

Sangiovese is a versatile red grape variety primarily grown in Italy, especially in regions like Tuscany. It produces wines with bright acidity, medium tannins, and flavors of red cherries, plum, earthy notes, and herbs. Known for its aromatic complexity, Sangiovese forms the backbone of famous wines like Chianti and Brunello di Montalcino. Its adaptable nature allows it to express different characteristics depending on the vineyard location and winemaking style. Sangiovese is valued for its ability to balance fruitiness with structure, making it a popular choice for both traditional and modern Italian wines.
