Sangiovese

Vega Vineyard & Farm · 2023 · Sangiovese · Santa Ynez Valley

Bright and juicy, the 2023 Sangiovese offers fresh strawberry and blood‑orange fruit enlivened by rose‑petal and tobacco‑leaf accents, lifted by vibrant acidity and smooth tannins in a lifted, crushable style, thanks to Steve Clifton’s transparent approach from vineyard to bottle. It’s best enjoyed over the next decade, reaching full expression between 2025 and 2032. Produced in small quantities at an estate founded in 1853 and steered by a winemaker celebrated for Italian varieties, it’s rooted in organic, site‑driven farming. Serve alongside roasted pork or tomato‑rich pastas if desired.
