1999 Sangiovese

1999 Sangiovese

The juicy berry fruit flavors and aromas of the Sangiovese form a marriage with the dark cherry character of the Cabernet, punctuated by a hint of earthiness and wild violets from the Petit Verdot.  This super-Tuscan blend is one of our most exotic novelties.

“While the majority of California Sangiovese is mediocre, Pride Mountain manages to cram abundant flavor and intensity into their offering.”  Robert Parker, December 23, 2000
