What our expert thinks...
Calcanio's 2023 Sangiovese is an Italian masterpiece from Emilia Romagna, with a firm but gallant texture along with flavours that dance across your palate. At its heart is an essence of cherry and dark berries. Every mouthful is a journey. This wine is the epitome of a Friday night unwind - ideal for a pizza night with the family or for savouring alongside a hearty pasta dish. Uncomplicated and utterly satisfying.
