UNTI Sangiovese

100% Sangiovese from vines planted in 2007 (65%) and 1992 (35%), all located on our Benchland property. It is Sangiovese Grosso, the clone used to make the renowned, full-bodied Brunello di Montalcino of Tuscany. The 2022 Sangiovese shows the vital importance vineyard/crop level management has to this variety.  An early September heat wave gave us a bit more stress than '21, but we carefully managed the harvest to create dark, full-bodied Sangiovese that is quite Brunello-like. It is a reminder that sometimes it IS better to be good than lucky. The wine shows intense fruit with tannin structure that will age well for 5 to 8 years.
