title: Flora Springs 1999 Poggio del Papa Sangiovese (Napa Valley)
description: California has struggled to produce a super-Tuscan that was at once deeply flavored and classically structured. With this wine, Flora Springs raises the bar. It has all the fruity flavors you expect from the vintage, with the architecture of a fine Napa red. The tannins and acids are softly intricate. Mainly Sangiovese and Merlot, with a dollop of Cabernet Sauvignon.
variety: Sangiovese
designation: Poggio del Papa
