We grow Sangiovese at both the Kiona Estate vineyard (2 acres) and the Ranch at the End of the Road vineyard (3.5 acres) on Red Mountain. Although not planted in large quantities in our area, it excels nonetheless. Big diurnal temperature swings and lots of heat accumulation amount to ripe fruit with ample, well-balanced acidity.

Sangiovese is an extremely versatile grape that has near universal appeal for red wine drinkers. On Red Mountain, the wines are racy and bright, with vibrant red fruit and trademark minerality. Its ample acidity makes it a food-pairing superstar, able to complement a wide array of cuisines from around the world.
