2003 Benessere Rosato

[beans]

I am a lucky recipient of a gift bottle of wine. Even better, one from my employer!

This Rosato di Sangiovese is a lovely colour and a mere 12 cases were available for the ordering (I suppose allotted to the Cleveland area). Not quite red, and a wee bit more than to be really deemed as a "pink" hue.

Anyone try this vino?

Now there's a winery name you don't see that often. Benessere is one of those Napa Valley wineries that does an above average job with sangiovese - either in the rosso or rosato form. But it's been years since I've even seen a bottle of the stuff.

The Sangiovese Rosso is particularly good- silky and sexy..! And, fairly reasonably priced...
