The Best Box Wines – Fuori Strada Off Road Sangiovese 2012

The Reverse Wine Snob: The Best Box Wines - Fuori Strada Off Road Sangiovese 2012
Ripe, fresh and juicy Sangiovese from Tuscany in a 1 Liter box.

100% Sangiovese from Tuscany, Italy. Made with organic grapes.

SRP of $15 and available for as low as $12 for a 1 Liter Tetra Pak. Sample submitted for review.

From the box:

“This wine expresses the classic qualities of Italian Sangiovese – intense ruby red with hints of purple; aromas of cherry and red plums, and spice; on the palate it’s fresh and fruity, medium-bodied and well balanced, with a juicy acidity and a long finish.

As a winemaker I was drawn to Italy out of a love for Sangiovese, Tuscany and the distinctiveness of Italian wines. Enjoy this delicious ready to drink Sangiovese, in an environmentally conscious package, from vineyards farmed organically by passionate growers!

13.5% Alcohol”

OK, perhaps a bit of a cheat today in our box wine series as this selection only comes in a 1 Liter Tetra Pak and not a 3L box like the others we’ve featured, but the Tetra Pak offers many of the same advantages so we decided it has a place in this series. (Plus, it’s just darn tasty wine.)

The 2012 Fuori Strada Off Road Sangiovese begins with a fabulous bouquet of red cherry, plum and spice. The medium-bodied wine tastes really delicious and features nice, ripe, fresh and juicy red and black cherry fruit with good touches of spice. The finish is dry, fruity, spicy and long. Overall this is an excellent, easy drinking wine that tastes just like a good Chianti. With nice acidity as well, it’s a great pick for pizza night.
