About the wine
3 great Italian wine varieties in one!
- Inspired by his time working in Italy this wine is testimony to Drew’s love of the wine styles of that country and also to the passion of a local Central Ranges grower who has planted his entire vineyard with Italian varietals.
- A unique Australian blend of Piedmonte's 3 greatest red wine varieties, Nebbiolo, Barbera and Dolcetto. Oodles of charm, fruitiness and approachability with extra depth from the Barbera and a lick of tannin and structure from the Nebbiolo. Loads of bold fresh fruit and a nice bit of tannin to carry the flavours with just a hint of oak impact.
- It’s all about immediate appeal. Rosso is a red wine that you can drink on warmer days as well as on cosy winter nights. You’ll be able to crack this open as soon as it arrives at your door! Ready and drinkable from day one.
Best before
Drink it while its young and fresh. However, I'd expect it will develop some good bottle maturity over 5 years.
Serving advice
Don't serve it too warm - about 20'C, especially in summer.
Food match
A fairly adaptable wine. Rich pasta sauces, BBQ'd meat and vegetables, vegetable salads, even a light curry.
