Initial impressions were of bloody dusty, smoky aromas. A medium weight savoury palate with red fruits and savoury firm tannins although it is very young. I remember some years ago touring Tuscany with Peter Scudamore-Smith MW, who, at the time didn’t think any decent Sangiovese was produced in Australia. I think if anyone will do it it will be Coriole. They pioneered Sangiovese in Australia with the first plantings in 1985. This is a great food wine and a very good rendition of a new World Sangiovese.
