Fradei Sangiovese comes from the prestigious Rubicone area in central Italy, where the grape Sangiovese is the key varietal.
This is a wine that is rarely very dark in color. Its youthful purple-red color turns to a brick color around the rim after four or five years of aging. These thin-skinned grapes yield wine with bright aromas and flavors of black cherries, red plums and blueberries with nuances of violets and cinnamon.
This wine pairs with a wide range of foods because of its medium weighted body and savory character. It will work perfectly with rich roasted meat (beef, lamb, pork), cured sausages, pastas, stews, and hard, well-aged cheeses.
