Note di degustazione
Pride has always made one of the finest wines from Sangiovese, but they don’t make a whole lot of it and only bottle it in 500 ml formats. It is fermented in stainless steel but aged 12 months in 40% new French oak. There are 216 cases of the delicious 2014 Sangiovese, which exhibits the classic spicy cherries, new saddle leather, licorice, dusty, loamy soil notes and touch of tobacco leaf in a medium to full-bodied, dense purple-colored format. It doesn’t cut a huge swath across the palate, but its fruit is intense, pure and provocative. Drink it over the next 4-6 years. The $60.00 price is for 500 ml.

Pride's 2014 Sangiovese is a very beautiful wine. The addition of 17% Merlot gives the wine a good level of mid-palate richness and pliancy to balance some of the more natural leanness that is typical of Sangiovese. Sweet red cherry, plum and spice notes are pushed forward. This is a distinctly forward, fruit driven Sangiovese. While it is not especially varietally expressive, Pride's Sangiovese is a delicious wine.
