Di Majo Norante

Sangiovese

Sangiovese & Sangiovese-Based Blends

Made from 100% Sangiovese grown in the Ramitello and Martarosa vineyards and harvested in October. The wine is aged in stainless steel and large oak barrels for six months in order to achieve greater smoothness and softness while preserving the supple fruity flavors of Sangiovese. A tremendous value and one of Winebow’s blockbusters!

Tasting Notes

This Sangiovese exhibits fresh aromas of violets, woodland berries, sweet spice and leather. Deliciously smooth, plush and juicy on the palate with loads of ripe fruit.

Food Pairing

Di Majo Sangiovese is recommended with brick-oven pizzas, chorizo and granular cheeses such as Parmigiano-Reggiano or aged Gouda.
