Pleasant chillable red blend of Nero d’ Avola (65%), Grenache (25%) and Zibibbo (10%). Aromas of bright red berries, red flowers and woody herbs. The palate features red and blue berry fruit, black pepper, cinnamon and graphite. A slight hint of vanilla on the very earthy finish. Bright acidity and super fine tannins. As the name implies, very fresh tasting. Quite “Beaujolais-like.” A nice choice on a hot summer day. Interesting A.F! — a year ago

After introducing itself by punching you in the nose, it follows up with a Liverpool kiss. This wine is huge, and needed 48 hours to properly mellow. It packs a punch with alc/vol exceeding 9%, and was almost undrinkable on night one. By night 3 the sheer violence it threatened had softened from a ferocious roar, to the low level grumble of a big V8 engine. Give this one time and space and the rewards are well worth it — 10 months ago
Just delicious, amazing to see what people are getting up to in Australian wine. — 3 years ago

See previous Delectable notes for Bellwether Montepulciano. Bellwether is based In Coonawarra but these grapes come from the warmer Riverland area perfectly suited to Monte like its homeland of Abruzzo in Italy. This had a youthful colour - fruit driven with minimal oak influence. Medium to full bodied showing plums and aniseed. Can be drunk now or experience short term cellaring. Barb and I loved having a hand in making this wine when we did vintage at Bellwether in 2021. — a month ago
