Mt. Boucherie Estate Winery 2019 Modest Wines Sangiovese - 88pts

Mt. Boucherie Estate Winery 2019 Modest Wines The Elder Vicar (Black Sage Bench) Okanagan Valley

Availability: Direct from winery here 
Cost: $29.99 + taxes
Alcohol: 13.5%
Date Tasted: May 23rd, 2021

Tasting Notes: Fresh and lively, this Sangiovese (with 5% of Merlot and Cabernet Franc blended in) is sourced from the Black Sage Bench and that region's signature, wild sage aroma is prominent on the savoury, tomato stock nose. Red fruit shows on the palate adding complexity and balance to the savoury profile of herbs'n'spice and refreshing, tomato acidity.

Think Italian with your food pairing ideas and you won't go wrong, though, special attention to spicy capicola, thin-crust pizza should be considered. Ready to go now. Drink 2021-2023.
