Nose
It oozes with scents of cranberry, rhubarb and redcurrant with a hint of graphite.
Palate
In homage to the classics of Tuscany, this vino evokes the essence of Italy. Wild fermented Sangiovese with a splash of Cabernet, it is captivating and filled with charm. Deliciously light on its feet with bucket loads of fruit, an intense and grainy palate is driven by plum, raspberry and cherry fruit. Defined by salivating, natural acidity and savoury curves that give length, depth and lineage. Pure charisma and Italian style... Bella!
Growing Conditions
We were challenged, battered and bruised, a couple of far north cyclones and a dearth of vintage workers made this a vintage to remember. But we emerged triumphant with another gorgeous Sangiovese crop.
Winemaking
A field blend of Sangiovese and Cabernet. Wild fermented and matured in old French oak for 6 months. No adds, bottled unfined.
Appearance
