Fighting Gully Road Sangiovese 2023

"Includes 5% colorino, an old Chianti variety. The wine spent 28 days on skins, then matured in Italian-coopered large casks. Bright, clear crimson colour; it has a delicious sour cherry, raspberry and black pepper blend, the palate harmonious, juicy, and as fresh as a daisy." 96 Points. James Halliday Top 100 Wines of 2023

"This mid-weighted sangiovese is so good, I can't believe it isn't from somewhere Etruscan and far away. A dollop of colorino in the mix. There are loads of Italians in these sub-alpine parts. The vibe was always there. The clones, however, were not. Until recently. Succulent red cherry, ume, dried thyme and dill, or at least something cool and refreshing, glossing the pushy finish. A framework of gently edgy tannins, chalky and refined. The acidity, frisky and juicy. Lovely drinking for the earlier to mid-term. Screw cap."  Ned Goodwin MW (Jamessuckling.com)

With beautiful berry characters and a distinct savouriness, Fighting Gully Road's Sangiovese is delicious. The winery considers this wine the best performing variety in the original Fighting Gully vineyard site.

Savoury nuances of dried herbs and dark cherry combine to create a complex nose. Fine tannins and acidity combine with ripe fruit to produce a medium-full bodied palate with persistent flavours.
