Montepuliciano from Abruzzo, Italy
$34
Montepuliciano rates as a grape variety that makes generous, supple wines & Contessa have delivered another beauty. It’s the kind of wine you can happily hook on its own, and, will do the job with a chunk of salami, a roast chook, pizza or steak. They’ve nailed the texture.

Nebbiolo from Commune di Barolo, Barolo
About Roagna Reading Roagna’s manifesto with my Vigneron’s cap on, it’s clear that they are driven to achieve excellence. In many ways, their approach reminds me of Yarra Yering.

Grenache from McLaren Vale, South Australia
Grenache is Back Baby! ... and in Style! So many good wines coming out of Aus! 20 years ago making wines like these would have made you an outcast in McLaren Vale.
