Castagna Adam's Rib Red (Nebbiolo Shiraz Sangiovese)

Playful in spirit yet seriously composed, Adam’s Rib Red brings together Syrah’s savoury depth, Nebbiolo’s structure, and the vibrant red-fruited charm of Sangiovese. Grown biodynamically on Castagna’s granitic Beechworth estate, it’s a blend that captures both energy and elegance with a distinctly European sensibility.

Aromatics of sour cherry, wild raspberry and red plum are layered with rosehip, dried herbs, and hints of spice and orange peel. The palate is bright and tensile, guided by lively acidity and a fine, assertive tannin line. Sangiovese brings lift and juiciness, while Syrah adds savoury complexity and Nebbiolo contributes definition and grip.

Expressive, food-friendly and full of personality, this is a wine that’s as engaging as it is thoughtful—a compelling nod to Italy through the lens of Beechworth.
