In my continued exploration of italian reds I happened across a bottle of 2000 Sangiovese and enjoyed it very much. I have done a little research and am becoming confused about this wine. I keep reading that Sangiovese is a varietal used in making other wines such as Brunello and Chianti. However, the bottle I had was not a blend, or at least wasn't identified as such on the label. Could you kind folk help me understand this wine better. The bottle I had was very nice and I plan to drink more but want to understand more about it before shopping for it.
Thanks,
Alan
