de Iuliis Sangiovese 2011

Sangiovese is such a food friendly wine and this effort from Mike De Iuliis is no different.

It's as though the wine was wearing a trucker hat with trendy get up on day one, and then day two, along comes the buttoned up shirt and trousers. I like the way this guy rolls...

Initially there was a depth of flavour and mulch type aroma. Bright in appearance delivering savoury and sour cherry flavours. There was a little more grunt factor than I expected, but it appealed to me. Acid was up there but didn't detract from the wine.

Day two produced a super smooth wine, a dash of spice still lurking wrapping up with excellent length. It was certainly looking more polished and damn easy to drink. I'd be happy to have this in my glass anytime.

Drink up to 2018.

Cellar door only.
