Needing help with some wine advice…?
So I normally like merlot, pinot noir and Souvignon I was just reading about Chianti/Sangiovese style wines how do they match up to what I already like?
I can drink almost any kind but it took pinto noir to get me into wine in the first place.. then i just kinda started liking it all … No cant say that i have had port whats it like?
Thanks Moxie! im gunna go by the wine store and see if they dont have a sample of some of those blends…
The taste will probably be closest to a California rich earthy Cabernet Sauvignon. In fact, Cab is often used to blend with the Sangiovese grape to soften it and give more balance.
If you can find it, Tenute Marchese is pretty easy to drink. Monte Antico is under $15 and this last vintage is pretty easy drinking as well. Also look for blends that are labeled as such. It’s a great way to taste a softer version of the Sangiovese.
Cheers!
SANGIOVESE !
