“Native to the French island Corsica, this is the only Australian Sciacarello on the market, making it very unique! The site is located on our ‘Vivian vineyard’, it was grafted onto Sangiovese vines in 2011 and the Sang vines were planted in 1992, the soils are grey and red clay on limestone. Like Vermentino, Sciacarello crops really well and is suited to our dry climate, it has big berries, thin skins and lots of acid! The 2022 vintage of this wine spent 9 months in a Slavonian Oak 2000L Foudre and then 2 months in stainless steel.
It has a incredibly vibrant nose of spice, rhubarb and cherries. On the palate the intense flavour continues with sour cherries and grandmas homemade roll-ups, finished with a touch of spice. It is very light, super refreshing and has a zippy acid line. Best served slightly chilled!”
