Chiara Condello Romagna Sangiovese "Predappio" 2019 (750ml)
Out of stock
Mixing both savory and sweet, floral and herbal, earthy yet packed full of bright cherry-berry fruits, the 2019 Sangiovese makes quite a first impression. This is silky in texture, yet juicy and spry with zesty, red berry fruits motivated by brilliant acidity under an air of inner violets and exotic spices. The 2019 has energy to burn, tapering off long and slightly grippy, creating a classically dry impression while also holding your attention firm with its lingering hints of licorice and candied almonds. There is so much balanced pleasure to be had from this Predappio Sangiovese.

Chiara Condello, Predappio
In Emilia-Romagna’s misunderstood hills, Chiara Condello rescues forgotten vineyards with the quiet determination of someone rewriting history. Her Sangiovese di Predappio—from thick-skinned clones thriving in clay and marine sediments—speaks in a dialect distinct from Tuscany’s: wines like Le Lucciole Riserva, where iron-rich soils translate into dark cherry and saline tension, or the whole-cluster Lo Stralisco, its wild-berry vibrancy untouched by oak. Fermented in open-top tini with deliberate gentleness, these are bottles that shimmer rather than overwhelm—proof that Predappio’s true legacy lies not in politics, but in the patience of hands that listen to the land.
