WINE DESCRIPTION

Crafted from estate-grown grapes, this Sangiovese is aged in oak barrels, with 20% being new, which imparts a refined structure and enhances its robust character. The careful oak aging adds layers of complexity while preserving the grape's natural vibrancy. Locati Cellars’ dedication to quality and tradition shines through in this wine, offering a powerful yet approachable expression of Sangiovese that beautifully marries Old World heritage with New World innovation.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
On the nose, you can expect to find enticing aromas of ripe red cherries, dried herbs like oregano and thyme, and a touch of floral notes.These aromas set the stage for a wine that is both elegant and complex.
On the palate, the Locati Cellars Estate Sangiovese continues to impress with its well-balanced structure and flavors that mirror the aromas. The red cherry notes take center stage, accompanied by hints of plum and a subtle earthiness that adds depth to the wine. The acidity provides a refreshing lift, while the moderate tannins contribute to a smooth and velvety mouthfeel.
