Variety: Sangiovese

Region: King Valley

Tasting Notes: Raisins & Plums
This wine has full fruit aromas of raisins, plum and morello cherry, along with an earthy, rustic edge. The palate is quite complex with a good balance of fruit sweetness and savoury characters. Expect to see simple plummy flavours along with tobacco and spice.

Background Information: "Shows clear varietal fruit with a mix of red and sour cherry flavours on its light-bodied palate; good lunch red".
RATING: 88 TO: 2010 PRICE: $15
James Halliday 2010 Wine Companion

Runner-up in Best Value for Money
"Remarkably complex Sangiovese for this price point and shows what you can do with a little thought. It has more fruit sweetness and plumpness than you’d expect but the typically dry savoury finish picks up the palate perfectly. Very good food wine for the next few years".
