Godenza Romagna Sangiovese Predappio DOC
The monkey embodies the style of a wine that goes back to the origins of Sangiovese. A wine firmly planted in the land, which faithfully describes the hillcrest it comes from. A vineyard with a very high amount of sandstone, which lends the wine its typical savory grip. On the nose, the wine shows aromas of spice, wildflowers, cherries and pepper. On the palate it is full-bodied with aromas of spice and a long finish.
