FIGHTING GULLY ROAD La Longa Sangiovese, Beechworth

The Rialzi Chianti Classico is a Gran Selezione from the Perano Estate which has been owned by the Frescobaldi Family in Tuscany for many years. With three terraces with alberese soils and asouth-western exposure, the Rialzi vineyard is located 650 metres above sea level. After meticulous work in the vineyard, the Sangiovese grapes were carefully hand-picked and vinified in the traditional method after which the wine was aged for 36 months, 24 of which spent in oak barriques. Rialzi is a pure Sangiovese wine whose bold, elegant character is the result of the perfect combination of the soil type, altitude and unique micro-climate of the vineyard. It has an intense, bright ruby-red colour. The complex bouquet brings wonderful fruity and spiced notes together in perfect harmony. Hints of wild berries, sour cherry, violet flowers and spices are the overriding aromas, followed by toasted notes and juniper that further emphasise the idea of aSangiovese with indescribable structure and finesse. Its taste is unparalleled in terms of richness and depth, and the perfectly integrated tannins are dense and rounded. The finish is clean and persistent.

Giodo La Quinta Toscana IGT La Quinta comes from younger vines (7-12 years old) and spends 12 months in 700-2500 ltr oak barrels. It is a brilliant wine; if ever there was a wine with the Carlo Ferrini stamp on it, the La Quinta would be it. Its vibrant, pure and elegant; it is the pure essence of Sangiovese.
