Giodo La Quinta Toscana IGT La Quinta comes from younger vines (7-12 years old) and spends 12 months in 700-2500 ltr oak barrels. It is a brilliant wine; if ever there was a wine with the Carlo Ferrini stamp on it, the La Quinta would be it. Its vibrant, pure and elegant; it is the pure essence of Sangiovese.

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.

This Sangiovese has a lovely combination of soft, spiced red fruits & plums on the nose with dark chocolate and very subtle orange. A classic sangiovese with a savoury profile - making it very easy to drink. Perfect for Saturday night dinner parties, as the food pairings are endless!

Mark Lloyd of Coriole planted Sangiovese in his McLaren Vale vineyards in the mid 1980s and in 1999 he famously won the inaugural Australian Sangiovese Awards – a precursor to the Australian Alternative Varieties Wine Show, where this delicious 2016 Sangiovese won Gold! It has beautiful bright spiced cherry and plum fruit, with a savoury touch of herbs and spice. It's a terrific food wine - try it with your best Italian pasta dish.

The Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is a deep and vibrant ruby red with aromas of dried red fruits and dried wild herbs. The palate experience is intense with a complex weave of red fruit and spice, a little strawberry and aniseed jam. The palate doesn’t let up for a long time and it’s structural, with the acidity and tannins pointing to a long and steady future. Made with 100% Sangiovese (selected from their oldest vines and only in the best years), the juice is allowed to macerate on skins for 30-35 days and fermented at a controlled temperature followed by spontaneous MLF (malolactic fermentation), both stages in cone-shaped Slavonian oak casks. The wine is then racked off into 10 to 25 hectolitre Slavonian oak casks for a period of around 40 months prior to being bottle-aged for at least 15 months. 'An estate that has been on a roll of late with super-elegant wines.' Antonio Galloni
