About JeT

Style: Rosé
Grape Varieties: Sangiovese Grosso (BBS11 clone)
Price Range: ¥3,500-4,500; Japan retail; reference range based on Japanese wine-shop listings
Alcohol: 14%

An aromatic rosato made entirely from Sangiovese Grosso BBS11 — the name 'JeT' referencing Jacopo and Tancredi Biondi Santi, father and son at the helm of the estate. Grapes are harvested in early September and pressed extra-softly, then vinified 'in white' at low temperature with no skin contact. The result is a pale apricot hue with bright peach shimmers, a nose of wild berries, peach, white flowers, spice and grapefruit pith, and a dry, fleshy, fresh palate of baby wild strawberries, florals, spice and salinity.

Sommelier's Note

Named for father and son, JeT proves that a Sangiovese Grosso clone bred for structure can still make a rosé with real salinity and grip.

New to wine?

A serious rosé from a serious estate — more structured and food-friendly than most easy-drinking pink wines.

Food Pairings

A food-versatile rosé for grilled white fish, charcuterie, and lighter summer dishes; its saline edge also flatters raw seafood.

When to drink it

Summer lunches, aperitivo, seafood dinners
