The idiom Sangiovese is an incredibly aromatic and romantic wine. An elegant Stellenbosch Sangiovese with a seductive bouquet and a complex mouthfeel. Aromas and notes of deep red cherries are wonderfully enhanced by notes of fragrant tea leaves, vanilla and fine spices. Spicy and tasty with a wonderful balance of aromas, taste nuances and different textures.

The grapes for the idiom Sangiovese were subjected to a cold swelling phase for four days before fermentation began. During fermentation, the temperature was always controlled at 22-28°C. Malolactic fermentation was carried out using French wood in stainless steel tanks. The wine then matured for 12-14 months in 60% French oak and 40% American oak.
