This 2024 Montepulciano, from the Geographe region of Western Australia, is expected to be a vibrant and fruit-forward expression of the grape. On the nose, anticipate aromas of ripe dark cherries, plums, and blackberries, possibly accented by hints of fresh herbs, black pepper, and a touch of earthiness. The palate should be medium-bodied with lively acidity, soft to moderate tannins, and a juicy core of dark fruit flavors. The finish is likely to be clean, fruity, and moderately persistent, inviting another sip.
