Sangiovese Red Wine 2017 L’Arge D’Oor Vintage

L’Arge D’Oor 2017 Santa Barbara Sangiovese: A Bold Expression of Sustainable Winemaking

Crafted from sustainably farmed Sangiovese grapes in California’s Central Coast region, this exceptional wine captures the essence of Santa Barbara’s terroir with meticulous care. The 2017 vintage reflects a commitment to eco-conscious practices, ensuring every bottle delivers both quality and responsibility.

This distinctive Sangiovese undergoes an extended maceration period of 171 days on its skins—a rare technique that amplifies its rich flavor profile while building velvety tannins and deep color. After skin contact, the wine matures for two full years in neutral French oak barrels, allowing its natural character to shine without overpowering oak influences. The result is a complex yet approachable red wine that balances boldness with elegance.

Released unfined and unfiltered with minimal sulfur addition (35ppm), this wine offers a pure expression of its craftsmanship, appealing to lovers of authentic, natural wines. At 15.5% alcohol by volume, it boasts a robust structure perfect for pairing with hearty dishes like braised meats, tomato-based pastas, or earthy mushroom risottos.

What sets this bottle apart? The extended skin contact delivers layers of dark cherry, dried herb, and subtle spice notes, while aging in neutral oak ensures a smooth finish without woody undertones. Unlike many mass-produced wines, L’Arge D’Oor’s dedication to sustainable farming preserves the environment while enhancing the grapes’ vibrant flavors—a choice that aligns with conscious consumers seeking premium quality without compromise.

Ideal for collectors or enthusiasts exploring California’s Central Coast wines, this 2017 Sangiovese stands out for its artisanal approach and aging process. Whether enjoyed during a sophisticated dinner or as a standalone sipper, it promises a memorable experience rooted in tradition and innovation.
