Winemaker Giuseppe Losapio founded Azienda Uggiano in the early 1970s, and steadily developed the estate at San Vincenzo a Torri. It is now one of the leading producers in the Chianti Colli Fiorentini zone. Uggiano produces classic and classy Tuscan reds from the region's principal grape varieties.
Uggiano Sangiovese Syrah 'Il Sanzio' wine is a highly successful pairing of vibrant young Sangiovese and barrique-aged Syrah. Savoury, meaty aromas combine with rich dried fruit and spice characters. The palate has ripe black plum and bramble notes along with bright red cherry fruit. Supple, structured tannins and balancing acidity give a full finish. Why not try serving with Maremmana Tortelli - a local dish filled with spinach and ricotta served with hare or wild boar.
