Description / Reviews
// 100% Montepulciano from Tim Fechner's property, just north of Angaston in the Eden Valley.
"Poor limestone soil, +/- 380m above sea level, picked at the close of the season - mid April. Hand picked, plunged, pressed, bottled, labelled and loved.
Blackberry, spiced plum compote, mulberries, blackberry leaf, alpine herbs and a touch of peppery saucisson. Full and plush plums and cherries upfront, which makes way to a sweet core of blackberries with fresh acidity. A slight cooling alpine herb feel that returns to full fruit and tannin to close. Tight tannins are present throughout, but really pull the wine into focus as the acid line tails off." - Frederick Stevenson, Winemaker
"Bright magenta-splashed crimson with fruit tones of blueberry, boysenberry and black cherry fruits. Hints of crushed rock, exotic spice, amaro, dried citrus rind, wildflowers, cherry conserve and earth. Bright fruits blue and black in shade, with a chewy, chalky tannin grip, bright red apple-skin acidity and a lightly earthen, savoury arc to its travel. Drinkability writ large." - 92+ Points, Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion
