High acid and firm tannin make Sangiovese a food grape above all else. Sour cherry, dried herbs and a savory, earthy edge rather than sweet fruit. The Veneto covers everything from crisp Soave and Prosecco to the dried-grape power of Amarone. Bottled by Cesari Amarone from the 2020 harvest. A short decant helps. Made for tomato-based dishes, grilled meat, and hard cheese.
