A blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Sangiovese, the 2019 San Pio is softly layered with a velvety texture and plenty of dark fruit aromas of plum and blackcurrant. The wine shows medium structure and is approachable overall, especially if paired with a breaded veal steak or meatloaf. It ferments in cement with spontaneous yeasts and ages in French oak for 18 months. Some 16,000 bottles were made.

A blend of 20% Sangiovese and 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2012 San Pio is a hearty and approachable red wine that would taste great next to a succulent cut of beef. The wine ages in oak for 18 months and consequently delivers a full offering of aromas that spans from bright cherry fruit to exotic spice. There are some budding tertiary tones of cola and crushed mineral as well that add complexity. The finish is firm and long-lasting.
