Made from Nero d'Avola, a native grape of Sicily. The vineyards that produced this well crafted red are in the Belice area on the western side of the island. A portion of the fruit is treated very carefully during picking and transportation so as not to break the skins. The bunches are than laid out and dried for 30 days. They are then gently destemmed and crushed, and fermentation takes place. This wine is then added back to the normally fermented portion. The combination of two wines provides great intensity, complexity and interest. The wine has an incredibly intense nose featuring black pepper and spices. The palate offers layers and layers of fruit with bursts of dark berry fruit, excellent balance and complexity, with a soft, lingering finish.

The vineyards that produced this appealing wine are situated near Controguerra, Abruzzo, at 250 metres altitude, inland from the Adriatic coast, halfway up the boot of Italy. The pecorino grape is not widely known in Australia. It is believed to be a native of the Marche region. The name may derive from the fact that the grapes were grown in hilly country, the same country that sheep were raised - pecora means "sheep" in Italian. Pecorino wine is easy going, with straw colouring, displaying distinct floral notes, minerality, field herbs, stonefruit and citrus. It is currently enjoying a surge of popularity in Italy and other parts of the world.

Succulent Aussie Montepulciano – or Monte – from RedHeads and the sustainable winery in the heart of the Barossa where their wines are made. RedHeads has always been a bit of a rebel! The ‘movement’ started in 2002 in the McLaren Vale – in a cellar where young winemakers could come in their spare time and make just the sort of small-scale wine they dreamed of (not like they did in their day job). Since then, the winery has moved home a few times, and today make their wines in the Barossa, at one of Australia's leading eco-friendly cellars. There, surrounded by many of Australia's biggest wine names, they handcraft revolutionary wines from top batches of grapes, rescued from under the noses of the big players.

This wine is produced with carefully selected Sangiovese grapes from northern-central Tuscany.Intense ruby red colour. Very aromatic nose, with berry and cherry aromas and flavours. On the palate, it is medium to full bodied, with fine tannins and a fruity finish. Enjoyable from its release, it reaches its best after two years of cellaring.

Carpineto Spolverino (Feather Duster) is an exciting Sangiovese blend from Chianti that pokes a little fun at the traditional Italian wine laws which prohibit a wine being labelled 'Chianti Classico' being bottled under screw-cap. As we love our wines to be fresh and vibrant in Australia, this brilliant (and affordable!) Chianti, closed with a Stelvin Lux, has enticing red cherry aromas blended with a touch of tobacco leaf and spice. Wonderfully medium-bodied, the palate is rich and generous, although supported by that typical Tuscan structure of zippy acid and soft, powdery tannin. Saluté!
