Tenunta Sette Ponti 2019 Crognolo

Tuscany, Italy

A blend of mostly Sangiovese and a little Merlot, this wine has a deep ruby colour and a nose of ripe blackberries, dark cherries and spices. On the palate, it is full-bodied and smooth with flavors of dark fruit, vanilla and licorice. The finish is long and persistent with a slight hint of oak. This is a great food wine that pairs well with pasta dishes, poultry and red meats. Try it with a roasted beef tenderloin and creamy mashed potatoes for a delicious experience. You can drink it now, but it will improve with a few more years aging.
