Tenuta Santodeno Sangiovese Appassimento 2024

Tenuta Santodeno Sangiovese Appassimento is a characterful Romagna DOC red that brings together the depth of the appassimento style with the bright personality of Sangiovese. Crafted by a family estate rooted in Emilia-Romagna since 1929, it offers a wine that feels both traditional and expressive, with ripe fruit, balance, and a distinctly Italian sense of place.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a ruby-red color with violet reflections, giving it a fresh and inviting appearance. The nose opens with generous fruity aromas, hinting at ripe cherry, red berries, and a touch of warm spice. On the palate, the wine is engaging and harmonious, with the natural freshness of Sangiovese rounded by the richer texture typical of appassimento-inspired winemaking. It has an easy-drinking yet structured feel, with a finish that keeps its fruit-driven charm. Best enjoyed young to capture its vibrant fruit, though it can hold for a short period in bottle.

Production
Made in Emilia-Romagna under the Romagna DOC designation, this wine reflects the terroir of one of Italy’s most historic Sangiovese regions. The family behind Tenuta Santodeno has cultivated the land with dedication since 1929, and this experience is reflected in a wine shaped by tradition, careful vineyard work, and a production style that emphasizes concentration and balance.

Food & Serving
This Sangiovese is a natural match for pasta with rich tomato sauces, grilled meats, roast chicken, and aged cheeses. Serve slightly cool for a red wine, ideally around 16–18°C, and decanting is optional but can help open up the fruit and soften the texture if served soon after opening.

Producer
Tenuta Santodeno is a family-run estate with deep roots in Emilia-Romagna, where it has worked the land with care since 1929. The producer is closely tied to the traditions of Romagna and is valued for wines that express both regional identity and a commitment to quality, with this Sangiovese standing as a clear reflection of that heritage.
