More questions
The Sangiovese IGT "Tenentino" by Giovanna Madonia presents a direct, honest profile that showcases the grape. On the nose there are notes of red fruits, cherry and small forest berries, with floral hints and subtle spicy nuances; the bouquet remains lively and straightforward, without heaviness. On the palate it shows a lean texture, supported by good acidity and present but soft tannins, allowing for a pleasant and immediate drink.
It is suited to everyday drinking and versatile food pairings: it naturally complements homemade tomato-based dishes, white meats and cured meats, and also works with boards of fresh cheeses. A moderate serving temperature highlights the balance between freshness and savoriness. Simple, carefully designed label, ideal for informal social occasions. A practical choice for daily use that keeps character and drinkability.
