White Cottage Ranch 2007 Estate Sangiovese (Howell Mountain)

Country: US / Estate
Variety: Sangiovese California
Winery: White Cottage Ranch / Howell Mountain

One of the drier, more elegantly structured Sangiovese out there. It shows subtle red cherry, red currant and tobacco flavors, laced with white pepper. A hard streak of acidity cuts through the middle, suggesting softening things like olive oil, lamb, mozzarella cheese.
