Wine Review: Famiglia Castellani 2019 Sangiovese is fragrant with ripe cherry, cedar spice and minty aromas; the wine is dry, medium-bodied and brilliant on the palate with ripe cherry, spiced plum, fine herbs and vanilla flavours with a toasty oak spice finish. Tannins are velvety. Enjoy this lovely Tuscan red with your favourite lasagne or chicken scarpariello dish. - Natalie MacLean
Wine Folly: Sangiovese is Italy’s most planted grape and the key variety in Tuscany’s renowned Chianti. It’s sensitive, tasting quite different depending on where it grows (p. 162).
My Review: This wine was enjoyable but the only thing I could taste was banana flavored Laffy Taffy. The flavor was so strange and it was all I could focus on. (3/5)
