[SOLD-OUT] Mitolo Serpico Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

 

"Air dried fruit (appassimento) alters the tannin structure toward a burlier whole, while changing the nature of the aromas from primary fruits, to more savoury elements. This serves a warm zone like the Vale well. The oak, malty. The density, extract and sheer presence of the wine, forceful. Saturated dark fruits, liquorice, tightly furled coffee grain tannins and mineral." - Ned Goodwin, Halliday Wine Companion

"Plenty of custard powder oak, blackberry, prune, some fresh mint and spice. Full-bodied, and at this stage, feels a little harsh, rather than the smooth flow you’d expect from a style using a dried grape component. Firm acidity, tang, somewhat gritty tannin, saline and earthy finish." - Gary Walsh, Wine Front

"Brooding and alluring nose with notes of blackberry, plum and savoury herbal spices. Full bodied and mouthcoating, led by deep, dark fruit characteristics, with flavours of licorice, dark chocolate and fig. Multi layered and complex with a savoury finish framed by fine grained tannins." - Mitolo
