A typically full flavoured Clare Valley Shiraz from the crew at Annie's Lane; exhibiting ripe, plummy fruit characters with a touch of spice and some regional minty notes.

Deep purple red in colour, it shows fruity notes of cherry followed by light spicy hints, black pepper in particular. Ganzo Chianti is pleasant, intense and decidedly fine. AWARDS: • Vintage - Silver at the Melbourne International Wine Competition Category - Red Wines. 93 Points
