SANGIOVESE

A land where if you ask for water, they give you wine…. that’s Romagna.

First mention is made of this wine as far back as the 17th century; legend has it that during a banquet held at the Monastry of the Capuchin Monks at Santarcangelo di Romagna, in the presence of Pope Leon XII and other illustrious guests, this wine, which was produced by the monks themselves, was served.
The wine was well received and they asked what it was called. A quick-witted monk said that it was called “Sunguis di Jovis” = Sangue di Giove (The Blood of Jupiter), hence Sanjovese. Over the years, it was adopted as the symbol of Romagna, thanks in part to attentive and intelligent producers.
