A lovely unoaked 100% Sangiovese, Brancaia’s annata bottling consistently delivers value. The 2023 is bright, fresh and floral. Scents of strawberry and orange blossom are offset by baked earth. It is light in weight without lacking red cherry substance, and fine, delicate tannins are folded in. Buoyant acidity supports with an easy flow to the subtle stony, mineral finish. A great wine to have on hand for an uncomplicated but satisfying dinner of spaghetti al pomodoro.
