Paolo Bea San Valentino (2018)

This wonderful red blend is grown at high-altitude in clay dominant soils and is comprised of 70% Sangiovese, 15% Sagrantino, and 15% Montepulciano. Don’t expect shyness here - this red is complex with Indian and Moroccan spice, deep macerated black fruit, sandalwood, and a crucial, yet subtle, note of volatility - a signature of Bea’s wines. Four years of aging in a combination of steel tank and large oak barrels lead this wine into a perfectly wild but pointed, red blend.
