THE WINE

Grapes: Sangiovese 70%, Sagrantino 15%, Merlot 15%

Bold, powerful, and opulent nose, ripe raspberries, bing cherries, with a hint of mint and dominant iron. Slight potting soil notes. Great complexity on the nose leads to a vibrant and pleasant palate. Surprisingly integrated alcohol for such a high abv. Sagrantino tannins are there; I’d give it some time in the glass! Delicious wine! I want to grill some Beyond Burgers!

THE WINERY

About the Winemaker

This wine is produced by a family that practices only natural farming and winemaking. Dentici lets nature lead the way as he creates the features and flavors of his next vintages. Allowing nature to control the process means that these natural wines may feature the same grape, but they will never taste the same year after year. For me, one of the things I look for when choosing wines for the Vegan Wines portfolio is not only vegan winemaking but how the people behind the winemaking lead their lives.

Dentici and his wife share a deep respect for animals and the environment. This family is filled with animal lovers, and animals are even a part of their family, like the horse on the bottle’s label. During our visit, they made us one of the best vegan dinners we’ve ever had, paired perfectly with their Grechetto.
