This is San Patrignano's top-end Sangiovese, and it certainly shows very nicely in a warm and sunny vintage such as this. The 2015 Romagna Sangiovese Superiore Riserva Avi is a soft and supple expression with an extra layer of richness and succulence that you would not find in a cooler vintage. The fruit is exuberant and boisterous with purple and black-skinned berries, all followed by smoke, tar and spice. The effect is compelling and inviting. This wine spends up to 18 months in large oak casks.
