This McLaren Vale Nero d'Avola from the talented team at Coriole has an incredible swag of awards including two Gold medals and four Trophies! In the glass: Medium density dark red. On the nose: Fresh red and dark cherry aromas with herb and violet perfume. On the palate: Medium weight yet quite intense with raspberry and redcurrant fruit freshness and lifted acidity. Very youthful, lively and Pinot-like with light, silken lingering tannins and savoury spice. Quite delicious!

Indeed a hedonists' dream – savour a 94pt McLaren Vale Sangiovese pretty and classy in pink! "No Grenache in the blend this year, but Sangiovese from Beautiful View (formerly Seaview) and the Willunga foothills. An orange-salmon tone in the glass. It’s more savoury than your average rosé. The fruit is there, pristine and pure… so neatly put together and reflective of high-quality fruit. Cherry and cranberry, watermelon, pink grapefruit, a little rose and tamarind. It’s properly dry, enhanced by a silty grip and resolved acidity. This is lovely. 94pts. Great Value” (Marcus Ellis, The Halliday Wine Companion). Walter Clappis has been making wine in McLaren Vale for nearly 40 years and has won innumerable Trophies and Golds, with fruit sourced from Cooter Vineyard, Whites Valley in the Willunga foothills.
