Terre di Melazzano – Sofie IGT Toscana
Terre di Melazzano – Sofie IGT Toscana
Sofie is our favorite.  We call her the "baby" Super Tuscan.  Only two varietals are needed to showcase the true beauty of Chianti country.  The serving temperature of this wine has an enormous impact on the flavor.  Served cold, as the label states, blends the two varietals perfectly to create a wine that empties the bottle before you realize it.  As the wine warms to room temperature, the silky and blodied tones of the Merlot shine.  The result is so easy to drink that it can be served as an aperitif, a dinner win, or a post-dinner sunset sipper.
  • Varietal: 50% Sangiovese, 50% Merlot
  • Alcohol Content: 14%
