Casal Thaulero Sangiovese

I am interested in wines that are under $10 and Casal Thaulero Sangiovese is one of them. For $6.95, this is a very good wine. Of course, you cannot compare this to some of the $15+ wines, but this wine stands out. It is actually better than some of the $10-$15 Ontario VGA wines.

CASAL THAULERO SANGIOVESE 2008
  • 750 mL bottle
  • Red Wine
  • 13.0% Alcohol/Vol.
  • Made in: Abruzzo, Italy
  • Sugar Content : 1 (Dry)
  • Body: Medium bodied
  • This delicious wine is produced and estate bottled in Abruzzo - one of the most beautiful region in Italy. The Sangiovese grapes grown on this estate are of highest quality, creating a dry wine with fresh aromas and well-balanced flavours. Casal Thaulero Sangiovese is excellent alone or with many dishes, especially roasts, cheese and pasta. Serve at room temperature.
  • Taste: Medium to deep ruby colour with cherry flavours
