About The Wine
2021 ABV 14.0% Australia Limestone Coast Montepulciano Mt Benson South AustraliaDescription
Montepulciano is an Italian variety that we have totally gone mad for. Widely grown across central Italy, this workhorse variety makes great value wines but also produces deeply coloured, rich and ripe wine with robust tannin. Like many of our alternative reds varieties, we source this Montepulciano from the Mundulla area of the Limestone Coast. If you haven't tried this variety before think a fleshy medium bodied wine. Primary varietal characteristics of red licorice, black cherry and cinnamon along with it's signature dried oregano flavour complement the dusty Italianate tannins.
Inclusion of whole berries and cold soaked for four days prior to ferment builds fruit flavour complexity in this wine. Matured for just six months in seasoned oak to allow some softening of the grape tannin without significant oak influence.
