2015 Angullong Fossil Hill Sagrantino

A variety best known by the wines produced in the Umbria region of Italy, this is a very good representation of the variety from Orange. Angullong are championing a number of varieties that are less commonly planted in Australia.

A dense dark red in the glass, there is concentration of plum and dark cherry on the nose that is laced by a touch of wood spice and earth. A full bodied wine with dark cherry, blackberry and plum fruit providing drive and depth with fine but very drying tannin giving contrast and rolling oak spice filling the gaps. There is a decadence of milk chocolate to the dark berry fruits to finish.

Well made, and will cellar.
