2001 Chain of Ponds Jupiter's Blood Sangiovese

If this is an example of bottled Jupiter’s Blood, then its pretty light and tannic. Bright brick red colour with brick red hue. Medium body. The nose has a beefy top note followed by a hint of spice and subtle cherry. The palate is quite dry – very typical of the varietal, with dry firmish tannins which are very persistent. Hint of confectionary on the aftertaste.
