Klinker Brick Sangiovese 2022

Klinker Brick Sangiovese is celebrated for its bold fruit flavors, layered spice complexity, and balanced tannins, though some note youthful pepper intensity. Reviews highlight evolving notes of black cherry, forest floor, and baking spices in a medium-to-full-bodied structure that pairs well with hearty dishes. While praised for its sophisticated flavor progression, a few find tannins firm in younger vintages.

This expressive Sangiovese greets the nose with enticing aromas of leather and forest floor, layered with a subtle touch of spice. On the palate, bold cherry and vibrant pomegranate take center stage, beautifully intertwined with the warm influence of French oak and refined tannins. The wine’s bright acidity and balanced structure make it incredibly versatile at the table. Pair it with classic Italian fare like a rich tomato-based pasta, wood-fired pizza with prosciutto and arugula, or grilled rosemary lamb chops. It also shines alongside hard cheeses like aged Pecorino or Parmigiano-Reggiano. Whether enjoyed on its own or with a hearty meal, this Sangiovese is a captivating expression of both Old World tradition and California’s dynamic winemaking spirit.
