2023 Chiorri La Cava - Sangiovese Umbria IGT

Tasting Notes

Ruby red with garnet reflections. Aromas of wild cherry, dried rose, and a touch of clove emerge from the glass. The palate is taut and vibrant, with tart red fruit, fine-grained tannins, and a clean, herbal finish that highlights its rustic charm and bright acidity.
