65. Maryhill Winery 2010 Sangiovese, Columbia Valley, $17
A fair bit of Sangiovese is planted in Washington state, and it’s probably best known for being turned into superb rosés. This is a full-bodied red, however, and it is delicious. Winemaker Richard Batchelor’s value-minded Sangiovese is a true-to-type red wine with bright aromas and flavors of cherry, heirloom tomato and cranberry, backed with bright acidity and mellow tannins. Enjoy this with lasagna, spaghetti and meatballs or an evening in front of the television watching The Godfather.
