The Hedonist McLaren Vale Sangiovese
All hedonists will adore this 93pt, Great Value McLaren Vale Sangiovese. It's "So varietally distinct, cherry scented, spicy, savoury and mineral of feel. This is also frisky, freshly cast and so engagingly drinkable.e...throughly delicious." (Marcus Ellis, The Halliday Wine Companion). The Hedonist is the enterprise of Walter Clappis, who has been making wine in McLaren Vale for nearly 40 years and has won innumerable Trophies and Gold medals. His daughtewr Kimberly Cooter helps him with the winemaking.
La Scelta di Sofia Toscana
You may well have tasted wines made from Tuscany's flagship red grape, Sangiovese, but La Scelta di Sofia is something totally unique. Very hard to find. It's a rare white wine made from the red Sangiovese grape – and has already notched up a huge 96pt score. Sofia Barbanera is an exceptional, pioneering winemaker at her family’s beautiful Tuscan estate, which has been handcrafting excellent wines for over 80 years. (Her Saracosa wines are massively popular among our customers.) Surrounded by some of the region’s most famous cellars, Sofia works hard to impress. Knowing her fans' love for Sangiovese, Sofia took it for a spin, with fantastic results. Her creation - a dazzlingly fresh white! Personally selecting the vineyard plots for this wine, she gave the grapes the gentlest pressing to ensure a light wine with quince and citrus aromas. Wonderfully, it still retains the tart cherry hallmarks of Sangiovese. Deliciously different and ideal with risotto, seafood and chicken.
