thanks man, for the compliment (you too, Balut!).
Sangiovese is my favorite grape.
I really like that wine as it has just a 'hint' of bubbly. Served it with VodkaTomato cream sauce over gnocci with fresh Basil and Parma cheese.
I really liked the soft lighting (from all the rain clouds), and the placement of the bottle/glass on a rustic surface was quite appealing.
