2022 Pizzini Sangiovese Shiraz, King Valley

Good taste is found in the balance. Whether it’s cooking the perfect Bolognese or creating the perfect wine. Combining the soft velvety tannins of Shiraz with the rich spiciness of Sangiovese, this easy-going character is at once wholly approachable and eerily familiar. Pair with a table filled to the brim with food made for sharing… table manners optional

Some batches of Sangiovese were fermented at 30°C to extract flavour, tannin and texture while the remainder was fermented at a lower 23°C to help retain freshness and lifted fruit characters. The Shiraz was fermented separately at 25°C to extract more delicate aromatics and fruit flavour. Following fermentation both varieties were placed in stainless steel to mature and impart freshness to the wine. The resulting wine is our “vino di tavola” Chianti style made for drinking now and every day.
