Sangiovese – 2012; Perissos Vineyard and Winery; Burnet, Texas


Behold greatness!  If you love Sangiovese wines, then you must have this bottle! As you savor this wine with your favorite cheese treat, you cannot help but enjoy the moment. You will most certainly gaze into the light red colors and savor those enticing aromas of this beautifully aged Texas Sangiovese, sourced from Twin T Vineyards in the Texas High Plains AVA.  Mesmerized, yes… addicted…that comes later. However, as soon as you can finally avert your eyes from admiring your glass, the bouquet seduces you again. Hours later, if the bottle lasts that long, you still enjoy the scents of black cherries, vanilla and plums. Other fruit notes may still be present, but those are the “strongest survivors” in this wine.  This Texas Sangiovese has mellowed nicely over the last several years, yet still holds some lovely earthiness.  So, what are you waiting for?  Finish the bottle and have another.  You did buy a case, didn’t you?  Cheers!!
