Sangiovese is the grape variety that makes up the major part of the red wines of Tuscany including Chianti and the very famous Brunello di Montalcino. While young it is packed with fresh cherries and spice notes and is known for its distinct tannins. Our 2015 Sangiovese was made aged in oak barrels for 12 months to develop complexity and structure.

A luscious mouthful of raisins and honey with an alluring bouquet of muscat. Hints of lychee and honey on the palate
Bold Berry characters with a touch of mint
Another exceptional vintage for this great Georgian red. Full bodied and inky, an outstanding new varietal for the Granite Belt.
Harvested in pristine condition in early January the fruit was de-stemmed, crushed and then fermented at low temperatures in stainless steel tanks to help retain the fresh fruit characters and bottled soon after ensuring minimal winemaking intervention. This process allows us to produce a wine that shows pronounced expression of both the vineyard and the variety
The grapes for this wine are picked 10-14 days earlier than the rest of our Semillon in order to capture high natural acidity and low sugar levels. This combination of high acid / low sugar / low pH coupled with grassy, citrus characters produces a wine of relatively low alcohol with excellent ageing ability. The wine is fermented at low temperatures in a stainless steel tank with a neutral yeast strain and bottled as a fresh, zesty youthful wine before being hidden away in the cellar to develop for a few years.
