Sangiovese Blend

Sangiovese Blend

Sangiovese Blend is a splendid grape variety predominantly grown in the gorgeous vineyards of the Italian peninsula, specifically in the sun-drenched region of Tuscany. As the backbone to many Italian wines, it is highly valued for its ability to sculpt robust wines teeming with character.

Characterised by its delicately thin skin, the Sangiovese grape delivers a palatable diversity of flavours, from fresh strawberries to more earthy tones of tea and spices. The experience of tasting a Sangiovese Blend, therefore, is indeed a delightful pleasure which changes subtly yet steadily, creating a captivating multi-layering of flavours.

This romantic grape takes its name from "Sanguis Jovis," which translates as ‘blood of Jupiter’, reflecting its Roman heritage and its connection to the supreme god Jupiter in Roman mythology. Today, it is synonymous with some of the most iconic red wines including the revered Chianti and the Brunello di Montalcino.

Sangiovese Blends are known for their beautifully balanced structure, blending high acidity with tannins to give the wine firmness and depth. This blend often includes grapes like Canaiolo and Colorino, softening the wine's profile and lending lusciousness to its texture.

Despite its firm affinity with its Italian origin, the Sangiovese Blend grape has found homes in other parts of the world as well. Certain Californian winemakers import these grapes to create their own luscious blends. Nevertheless, Tuscany remains the heartland of the Sangiovese Blend grape.

Its versatility contributes to its popularity - lighter Sangiovese wines are superb for lunchtime sipping, whereas bolder, complex versions work wonderfully with dinner dishes such as pasta or meat-based courses. Simple to elegant, day-to-day to celebratory, the Sangiovese Blend is a fantastic all-rounder in every respect. With a glass of Sangiovese Blend in hand, one can practically taste a slice of the beautiful Tuscan landscape, a true testament to the grape's glorious lineage.
