Montepulciano is one of Italy’s most widely planted grapes, now thriving in Australian Mediterranean style climates such as Riverland and Sunraysia. Known for its deep ruby colour and juicy tannins, it offers a plush palate of black cherry, licorice, dusty cocoa and dried Mediterranean herbs. It delivers richness without heaviness and brings a vibrant Old World character to local winemaking.
