NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Umberto Cesari Sangiovese Riserva offers a complex and intricate nose of black cherry, plums, and a hint of wild herbs.The palate is medium-bodied with moderate tannins and a long, lingering finish of smoky, earthy flavors. There's a pleasant balance of ripe fruit and fresh acidity, with a subtle hint of spice. With age, this wine will develop further complexity and character. Drink now or cellar for a few years to bring out the best of this smooth and well-balanced Sangiovese.
