Pikes Wines: 2006 Luccio Sanglovese Blend
Clare Valley
Description
.Typical dusty, dark cherry and dried flowers plus some subtle oak aromas deliver an enticing amalgam of aromas. Quite perfumed really. Again this is absolutely typical of this noble Tuscan variety. Medium weight cherry fruit, bright acid and firm, dry tannins form a structure that could only point towards the Sangiovese grape.

‘A sangiovese (80 per cent) that really sings, it’s display of cherry fruits beautifully backed by slightly savoury tannins of the other components; a bargain which should be on every Italian wine list in Australia’
