Tasting - Sangiovese

Name: Crane Lake Sangiovese
Varietal: 100% Sangiovese
Region: California
Country: USA
Year: 2015
Price:  $10.00

Shop Review: "Medium-garnet color; blackberry, plum and vanilla aromas; raspberry and cherry flavors; with supple tannins for a soft finish. This wine pairs well with fresh mozzarella and Brie cheeses. Also try it along with veal piccata, chicken parmesan or meat lasagna."

My Review: I smelled strong wiffs of alcohol and berries, none of the vanilla aromas mentioned above. It was very tart but smooth going down. I thought it was also too acidic and not sweet at all.

I did not try this with food.
