Jupiter Wine Co VIBRATION Sangiovese 2022 750ml

Oodles of snappy, crunchy red and black cherry fruit, verve-y and lifted purple flowers, sweet earth, raw ‘nduja, and a welcome high-toned upper register that strolls pleasantly across both nose and palate, leaving refreshment and a strong sense of moreishness in its wake. Originally old photograph from 2009 taken on a beat up iPhone 3, repurposed for us by the brilliant Marta Harding to pay respect and admiration to a pop culture milestone that has influenced us countless times since its release on July 2, 1996.

Sangiovese. A wine grape that derives its name from the Latin Sanguis Jovis, “the Blood of Jupiter.” Mythology tells the tale of a single Sangiovese vine growing from the soil where the blood of Jupiter spilled, and from that vine, all other Italian grapes were spawned. Now, genetic mapping has revealed the true tale of the origin of Italy’s thousands of wine grapes, but that doesn’t change the fact that Sangiovese is a wine of many things—sometimes all the things. It haunts us with its complexity and delights us with its refreshment, and we tried to capture our unbridled enthusiasm for this duality in the vineyard and the winery. Our picking decision always aims to capture more freshness than power, but Sangiovese will always give you a bit of both. This 100% Grosso clone comes from cuttings culled from Biondi-Santi in Montalcino, producing some of the most magical grapes at Fox Hill, in our opinion.
