tignanello “this was the first sangiovese to be aged in barriques, the first red wine to be blended with non-traditional varieties (like cabernet) and one of the first chianti reds not to use white grapes. tignanello is a milestone. it is made from a selection of sangiovese, cabernet sauvignon and cabernet franc. the wine is aged in barriques for about 12 months and for a further 12 months in the bottles.

the wine shows an intense nose of red fruit along with hints of sweet spices and underbrush. on the palate, the flavors are fresh and vibrant with supple and balanced tannins. the finish and aftertaste are long and sustained.”

barolo and barbaresco notwithstanding the fact that both wines are produced with 100% nebbiolo, in neighboring areas less than 10 miles apart, there is still a distinct difference between the two. barbaresco ripens earlier than barolo, giving it a shorter maceration time, allowing it to be ready to drink earlier. however, this means it does not age as well. barolo takes a little longer to be drinkable but will age long into the future.

shiraz + syrah & blends these are still australia's most popular red wines. the rich, ripe and intense characters of barossa, mclaren vale, heathcote and the hunter valley are still driving these wines. in recent years however those wanting wines of more subtlety, spice and finesse are enjoying the cooler climate exponents from the margaret river, pemberton, adelaide hills and hawkes bay to name a few. although shiraz and syrah mean the same, some producers are using the word syrah to express their rhone valley winemaking approach.
