Seasons Autumn Sangiovese
2023 Sangiovese, Hilltops, New South Wales
"Tertiary notes of leather and fallen autumn leaves on both the nose and palate suggest the wine is aging. It's a touch advanced—savoury red cherries chime in, though it lacks freshness overall. It's a drink-now wine, and the mix of flavours is quite appealing." - Gabrielle Poy, The Real Review

- Winemaking
Grown in the cool-climate Hilltops region, this Sangiovese was fermented naturally with no added yeast, allowing the vineyard's character to shine through. Gentle pump-overs maintained freshness during fermentation, which occurred at slightly cooler temperatures to preserve delicate aromatics. Aged in large-format oak to support its fine tannins, this vintage stays true to the elegant, food-friendly style of previous years. Its bright acidity and subtle structure make it a perfect match for hearty autumn dishes.
