Wine Details
Price:
$24.00 per bottle
Description:
Where horse thieves and renegades once sough trefuge, vines now flourish in the rolling mountain vineyards of Wild Horse Peak. The overwhelming red clay soil, granitic outcroppings, and steep terrain coupled with outstanding climatic conditions define the ultimate winegrowing conditions of Southern California. The character of the South Coast Winery 2004 vintage of Sangiovese is reflective of its Italian origins as a varietal. This Sangiovese is a deep pyrope garnet color, with hints of fennel and candied cherry fruit in the aroma. The body is round, and the tight laced tannins meld with the crisp acid structure. This wine was aged for seventeen months in a combination of French, Russian and Hungarian oak, which gives the luscious fruit character a balance of sandalwood and smokey vanilla spice that begs a second sip. This is a Sangiovese that will work well with anything off the grill--salmon, pork, chicken and beef.
