Terra del Capo Sangiovese 2000

This wine has a definite hint of smokiness, combined with earthy mineral elements. Rich in fruit flavours such as prunes, apricot and peaches. The wine has an elegant tanin structure that ends softly with a slightly sweet sensation. Sangiovese is an ideal companion to Italian cuisine such as tomato based pastas with beef strips, gorgonzola and rocket leaves as well as pizzas with sundried tomatoes, feta and spinach.
