The First Creek Sangiovese 2017 from the Hilltops region opens with raspberry, red cherry, blood plum and herb notes, flowing into a light-bodied, juicy and fresh palate with tart red fruits, notes of dried herb and citrus rind, and fine tannins on the finish. A light, fragrant red that’s quite Pinot-like and ideal with charcuterie.
Made exclusively for Wine Selectors by one of the biggest names in the Riverina, the F. Calabria Founder’s Series Montepulciano 2018 is a rich expression of the region, the grape, and the maker’s Italian heritage. A fruit powerhouse yet not over-the-top, it shows concentrated black fruits, savoury cigar box and cedar spice, and juicy tannins and mouthfeel. Given its Mediterranean roots, it makes a natural partner to a range of pizza and
pasta dishes.
