Eddie McDougall'sSangiovese 2016
About this product
Aromas of sour cherries, baked cloves, vanilla and tea. Velvet-like tannins, a plush fruit presence driven by a plummy richness provides an unwinding palate of concentrated flavours and textures driven by a crisp acidity profile.
A wonderful example of the classic Italian grape varietal being cultivated in Australia's high country. The fruit for this wine is sourced from a boutique grape grower who's located in the King Valley's sub-region of Chestunt. The vines are planted to the clones M6 and M7 which are recognised for aromatic complexity and supple tannins.

Clones M6 and M7, whole-berry fermented, pumped over 2-3 times daily, matured in French barriques (10% new). Bright, clear colour; a fragrant basket of small red fruits is peppered by allspice flavours, and complexed by balanced tannins.
