Fighting Gully Road Black Label Sangiovese 2019

OUTSTANDING AUSTRALIAN SANGIOVESE, MADE WITH THE BRUNELLO CLONE THAT GIVES REMARKABLE RICHNESS AND DEPTH

 

"A testament to the importance of patience in vinification, the Black Label 'La Longa' Sangiovese has great depth, structure and complexity, while retaining an elegant, medium-bodied palate with lingering fine-grained tannins. Brambly dark berries with sour cherry and plum, it has nuances of dried herbs.

Many of the greatest wines made in Italy are crafted from Sangiovese, none more so than from the area south of Siena around the hilltop town of Montalcino, where Brunello is King. The Brunello clone of Sangiovese, along with the geographic and climatic diversity of the region allows many different styles to be produced: from full-bodied,rich and firmly structured at lower altitudes, to finer and more elegant wines at higher elevation 600m above sea level.

Like the latter, our La Longa Sangiovese is about creating an Australian Sangiovese benchmark with finesse." - Fighting Gully Road
