GORGEOUS, IN THE UPPER ECHELONS OF AUSTRALIAN SANGIOVESE

 

"Medium-deep bright red-purple colour with a smoky, spicy, slightly nutty and smoked charcuterie bouquet that is complex and savoury. The palate is finely structured and penetrating, taut and long, the elegance of the wine unquestioned and the length also, tannins fine and discreet while adding the requisite structure and grip. A more sinewy, almost nervy wine compared to Un Segreto 2018, and very smart." - Huon Hooke 

 

"This is dark and brooding in fruit character but doesn’t raise its head above medium weight. Firm tannins wrap the wine up neatly, there’s bright, cranberry fresh and tangy acidity underlying and the wine speaks in perfume and palate of red berries, anise, fennel, salumi, cedar and white pepper. There’s an edginess to this wine, like the components haven’t quite synched, but in that, you can see quality, detail, the complexity inherent. It’s a wine of tension and energy regardless, and an overarching deliciousness is here too. Patience." - Wine Front
