This is a simple wine for one of those times when profound is not only not necessary, but inappropriate for the occasion. It’s 100 percent Sangiovese, fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks, and meant to be enjoyed with salumi, olives and/or dishes bathed in marinara sauce, including pizza. The firm acidity precludes it from being a stand-alone sipping wine, but with casual Italian cuisine or Mediterranean appetizers, it’s a refreshing winner of a wine at a very attractive price.
