From: Poggio San Giorgio, Emilia-Romagna, Italy
Varietal: Sangiovese

Taste: In the glass, the wine shows a vibrant ruby hue with flashes of garnet at the rim. The nose is lifted and precise, offering aromas of sour cherry, red currant, dried rose, and hints of orange peel, layered with subtle notes of bay leaf, leather, and crushed stone. It is medium-bodied and energetic on the palate, with firm, linear tannins and vivid acidity driving flavors of red berries, pomegranate, and dried herbs. A touch of savory spice and gentle minerality carry through the finish, which is long, clean, and quietly structured.



Pairing: Sangiovese’s naturally high acidity and moderate tannins make it one of the most versatile food-pairing grapes. It works particularly well with tomato-based sauces, roasted vegetables, and lean proteins. 

About: Tenuta San Giorgio operates from the village of Poggio San Giorgio in the Colli Piacentini zone of Emilia-Romagna, Italy. A project that represents a modern take on regional heritage, Tenuta San Giorgio began producing wine in earnest with the 2017 vintage. The estate is owned by the Ferrari family—not to be confused with the Trentino-based sparkling wine house of the same name—and is currently led by Lodovico and his son Bernardo Ferrari.
