Guglielmo Winery
Sangiovese |
2005 Private Reserve Sangiovese
Santa Clara Valley
The Guglielmo family proudly offers this Cal-Italia wine in celebration of the rich Old World winemaking tradition. The Sangiovese is the predominate grape variety used to produce the Italian Chianti Classicos. After a bit of aeration, the 2005 vintage opens with an earthy, dark fruit character set within a background of incense-like spices. On the palate the dark fruit characters develop and evolve - complementing an array of anise, allspice, cola and cedar.
WINEMAKERS NOTES:
Produced from two distinct vineyards located within the western foothills of Santa Clara Valley, the 2005 Private Reserve Santa Clara Valley Sangiovese exhibits an alluring fruit-forward style. For additional complexity and to soften the acidity we blended in 15% 2005 Santa Clara Valley Merlot. The production of the 2005 vintage yielded approximately 660 cases.
Varietal Composition: 85% Sangiovese/15% Merlot Alcohol: 12.6%
