Introduction
The 2022 Field Recordings "Freddo" Sangiovese from Paso Robles, California, is a fresh and vibrant take on the classic Italian varietal.

Terrior
Paso Robles’ Mediterranean climate, with its hot days and cool nights, provides an ideal environment for ripening Sangiovese. The diverse soil types—ranging from limestone to clay—add complexity and a slight minerality to the wine. The cooling influence from the Pacific Ocean preserves acidity and freshness, balancing the natural fruitiness of the Sangiovese grape.

Appearance
Medium ruby with a bright, clear appearance, showing youthful vibrancy.

Nose
Aromas of wild cherry, red plum, and raspberry, with hints of rose petal and herbs like basil and thyme. Subtle notes of earth and a faint dusting of white pepper add complexity.

Palate
Light to medium-bodied, with fresh acidity and fine, soft tannins. The palate is lively with flavors of ripe cherry, cranberry, and pomegranate, accented by a gentle herbal edge and a hint of spice. A refreshing acidity enhances the juiciness, making this wine light, approachable, and easy to enjoy.

Finish
Clean and refreshing, with lingering red fruit notes and a touch of minerality, leaving a bright, lifted finish.
