ESSENCE OF FAMILY

The wine has a bright ruby red colour with vibrant purple hues. The nose is intense yet subtle and elegant. Dark cherry, sherbet and plum aromas greet you, then as the wine opens vanilla, spice and leather emerge. Juicy acidity is reminiscent of biting into a ripe plum, with hints of spice and cherry. The finish is delicious, with dusty, lingering tannings. This wine has great drinkability and a really elegant finish. Pair it with beef tartare or Nonna’s cannelloni. Enjoy while young, or over the next 5 years.

VEGAN FRIENDLY

Winemaking

The Montepulciano grapes were machined picked and crushed into an open top fermenter. The wine was fermented at cool temperatures of around 28 degrees and hand plunged for soft extraction, retaining fresh fruit characters and reducing tannins. Once the wine finished alcoholic fermentation, the free run juice was drained and the skins lightly pressed. The wine was racked after six weeks and transferred to barrels for malic acid fermentation where it spent 18 on oak months before being blended, fined and bottled.
