Santavese

2009 South Coast Sangiovese

The South Coast Winery Santavese, a delightful Sangiovese from the 2009 vintage, showcases the vibrant and fruit-forward character that this varietal is known for. Hailing from the picturesque South Coast region, this red wine presents a ruby hue that catches the eye, while the nose is filled with inviting aromas of ripe cherries and red berries, enhanced by subtle notes of spice and earthiness. On the palate, the wine offers a medium-bodied experience with bright acidity that balances its luscious fruit, making it exceptionally food-friendly. The tannins are delicately woven into the structure, providing a smooth yet lingering finish that invites another sip. This Sangiovese is dry, presenting a refreshing profile that makes it a great choice for pairing with a variety of dishes or simply enjoying on its own.

California

California is one of the most diverse winegrowing regions in the world. Spanning 850 miles along North America's west coast—and inland across mountains and valleys—California's American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) cover a dizzying array of terroir. The cold, deep waters of the Pacific Ocean play a major role in cooling California's vineyards, sending fog and chilly air up to 100 miles inland. This tempers the daytime heat and allows grapes to ripen slowly but fully. Cooler-climate grape varieties thrive closest to the sea, while further inland, bigger, bolder wines prevail.
