Pikes Luccio Sangiovese is perfect for grilled veal, pork or lamb and is fantastic with your favourite pizza or pasta dish too - anything “Italianesque” in fact! Cellaring for a few years is not a problem either – 3-5 years will not hurt it one bit.

Colour: Bright ruby red.

Aroma: Immediately inviting with ripe maraschino cherries, crushed florals, perfume and red confectionery. Savoury notes of fragrant five spice, cloves and aniseed add layers of complexity. Further time in the glass uncovers earthy rustic characteristics typical of Sangiovese from our site.

Palate: Juicy red and dark fruits upfront. Dominated by red and black cherries, but raspberry in the mix too. The finish is a perfect harmony of fruits.

Food Pairing: Pikes Luccio Sangiovese is perfect for grilled veal, pork or lamb and is fantastic with your favourite pizza or pasta dish too - anything “Italianesque” in fact!
