Sangiovese
Alpha Box & Dice toZzo Sangiovese 2023
Hyper-active, raspberry ripple. The 2023 toZzo Sangiovese screams back onto the scene, fat-bellied and rambunctious. This Italian treasure gestures with both hands. Emphatic black pepper plays nice with rhubarb. This is a quaffer of quality designed for liberal pouring, dripped over a tablecloth you don’t care all that much about.
