2001 Silverado Vineyards, Sangiovese, Napa Valley

Medium dark. Raspberry aromas. Bright raspberry, fruit, very high acid, soft tannins, long fruity finish. This was a very pleasant and easy to drink wine. List price is $18. My rating 82.

I am not a big fan of Sangiovese. This wine is 97% Sangiovese and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon. I preferred the 2002 Silverado Fantasia, which is a Super Tuscan style blend, made from 55% Sangiovese, 42% Cabernet Sauvignon, although that wine is much more expensive.
