Montepulciano has long been one of Italys most important and versatile grape varieties. The grapes for PEMO Montepulciano are grown exclusively on hillside slopes in the Abruzzo region, at an altitude of at least 250 metres above the sea level. Montepulciano has a rich red colour, with a cherryish nose. A deeply characterful wine with an abundance of flavour, it's delightfully soft and velvety, with red and black berry fruits, and a smooth, gentle finish.

Matured for 14 months in French oak hogsheads. Dense black as night heart with a deep dark red black tinged hue. Pronounced ripe black cherry, dark plum and liquorice scents take form followed by some vanillin cedar, earth and spicy dried herb notes. Rich fleshy dark cherry and plum fruits overlay a liquorice, vanillin earth, spice and fresh Mediterranean herb back drop. Polished tannin structure with a ripe slightly rustic feel to the medium length finish. Drink over the next 3-4 years. Alc. 13.8%

From Orange in NSW, this Shiraz is a good introduction to the qualities of this emerging area. It shows aromas of plum and spices and the palate is all about the fruit with little intrusive oak.

Kanopkop's Kadette is a a blend of Pinotage, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot that is full bodied and concentrated. It is a fantastic ambassador for South African wines and drinks well with spicy meat dishes.

Savoury and slightly earthy notes combine on the nose with attractive dark cherry aromas. The berry flavours are long on the palate and smoothly textured, finishing with light but persistent tannins.
