I mattaioni "Abbollore" 2020
100% SangioveseCrispy and lively. Black cherry, liquorice & tarragon.
Tasting Notes
Abbollore 2020 from I Mattaioli Estate has a deep purple colour.
On the nose it comes across young and crispy with notes of black cherry, liquorice and tarragon.
In the mouth is crunchy and shows again notes of liquorice but also tobacco leaf and a certain toastiness.
The finish is medium long.
It would be interesting to taste this again after leaving it two or three years in the bottle.

Sangiovese
Wine making grape
Sangiovese is a red Italian wine grape variety named after the Latin sanguis Jovis, which means “Jupiter’s blood.” Though it is native to most of central Italy, from Romagna to Lazio, Campania, and Sicily, it is best known outside of Italy as the sole component of Brunello di Montalcino and Rosso di Montalcino, as well as the primary component of the blends Chianti, Carmignano, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, and Morellino di Scansano, though it can also be used to make varietal wines like Sangiovese di Romagna
