Vicino Lontano

Sangiovese is as much a staple of Italian culture as winemaking itself. You will find this historical grape variety in vineyards across Italy, making its way into some of the country’s most famous varietal wines and blends. Our Vicino Lontano Sangiovese is a gorgeous example of a classic Italian wine style that honors centuries of tradition. From the soils of southwestern Sicily, this light and friendly wine is impeccably balanced with modest red fruit flavors, a hint of sweetness, and subtle spice. A relatively dry Mediterranean climate allows our Italian winemaking partners to take great care in selecting the perfect time for harvest. The wine then ferments at controlled temperatures in stainless steel tanks to highlight Sangiovese’s bright fruit characteristics. Each sip invites you to immerse yourself in Sicilian culture as you are transported to the sun-soaked heart of the Mediterranean. Scroll through the image carousel above to learn more about this wine.
