Altamura makes perhaps the finest Sangiovese in California and if you are new to the varietal it will please even the most die-hard fans of Cabernet, Syrah or Zinfandel.
92 Points Robert Parker: "The dark plum/ruby-hued, seductive 2006 Sangiovese exhibits notes of sweet cigar tobacco intermixed with plums, balsamic, strawberries, and black cherries. Round, generous, medium to full-bodied, and disarming, it should be consumed over the next 4-6 years...Altamura continues to impress me, not only for their Cabernet Sauvignon and Sauvignon Blanc, but also for one of the finest California Sangioveses money can buy."
