休·漢密爾頓桑嬌維塞梅洛丹魄混釀紅葡萄酒

點擊次數：6029

A lively, medium-bodied dry red for casual meals, this is a good example of Australian Sangiovese. Red berry fruit is backed by crisp acids and firmish tannins, making this a good candidate to pair with burgers or pizza. It’s 85% Sangiovese, with the balance Merlot and Shiraz.——J.C.(5/1/2011)—— 87

Inspired by a trip to Tuscany, Hamilton planted Sangiovese in the mid-1990s, and while this wouldn’t be mistaken for Chianti, it does have Sangiovese’s classic cherry and tobacco flavors. It’s less full-bodied than the other Hamilton offerings, making it more of a picnic red, or one to pair with chicken rather than steak. Multiple U.S. importers.——J.C.(12/1/2007)—— 87
