Description
The 2015 Sangiovese White Hawk is my second vineyard designated release from White Hawk Vineyard.
A windswept ridge of ancient sand dune soil at White Hawk, these vines struggle to grow. Small berries, and small clusters produce an intense mineral, scorched earth & balsamic driven wine, dare I say, similar to what's grown in Montalcino!
However, upon release the White Hawk Sangiovese is always open knit , very smooth & approachable. They age well even though they are so friendly when young.
Aged in 700L French Oak tonneaux for 3 years.
Only 145 cases produced.
