What to Expect

Sangiovese's claim to fame is its role as the heart of Chianti, Brunello and many Super Tuscan wines though it is gaining ground as a varietal wine around the globe. When grown in a suitable location the grape's soft tannins, succulent acidity and moderately intense cherry and herb flavors make Sangiovese very easy to drink as well as supremely versatile at the dinner table.

Rich in aromas of mature fruit and hints of vanilla. On the palate, the wine is well-balanced, elegant with a good structure. Peppoli is made with a view to being enjoyed fairly young, when all its fruity nuances are at their maximum.

Rating: 0/5 - As reviewed by Decanter This typifies Piero Antinori's drive for modernity applied to tradition - a small amount of Syrah blended with Sangiovese, producing a Chianti with deep colour and enticing aromas, yet superbly balanced and complex.
