2019 Mount Horrocks Nero D'Avola Organic, Clare Valley

This is such a cheery wine. It's not complex, but it is bursting with bright flavours. All summer fruits from cherries, blueberries to raspberries with a hint of confectionary, a cola-sarsaparilla character that appeals. Juicy and tangy acidity across the lighter-framed palate with a kiss of tannins. A summer red? Definitely.

Dark savoury aromas of anise, blackcurrant, bouquet garni and spice. A mid-weight palate with cranberry and blueberry. There’s a lovely drive of dry, textured tannins, which give mouth-feel and savoury complexity. Acidity is fresh and adds a real lightness to the wine. Savoury, structured and quite delicious 14 AUG 2021 Drink 2021–2028

Appealing cherry/plum red. Vibrant fruity scents, perfumed, lightly floral. Deliciously juicy with vibrant acid and crisp tannin to match. Savoury dark cherry, raspberry and plummy fruit with appealing spice accents. Lovely mid-weight, cleansing palate that provides an ideal match to succulent pork and fennel sausage. Now to 6 years.
