Da Vinci 2003 Riserva Sangiovese (Chianti)
- $24
A distinct herbal or spice note is the first thing you’ll notice in this Sangiovese-based Riserva. Medicinal herbs, Indian spice, cinnamon, cumin and dried sage or oregano are very abundant and set it apart from the rest. In the mouth, this is a firm wine with a solid tannic grip suggesting a successful pairing with grilled meats marinated in rosemary oil.

Da Vinci 2000 Riserva Sangiovese (Chianti)
- $20
Dark to the eye, with round plum and berry aromas jazzed up by a mix of chocolate and herbs. A forward palate presses ripe cherry/berry fruit, while the finish is collected and pure. Well made and on the money. Of note, this is a Gallo project.
