di Lusso Estate

Red Wine

To most wine drinkers, the red wine styles of Italy are the highlight of any wine tour of the country. They are just created for food. Somewhat lighter than their French cousins (at least the way those styles play out in Australia), with a more subtle acid-tannin balance. They are ready for drinking somewhat earlier, with their savouriness suiting the savoury flavours we love.

2023 was certainly a ‘Riserva’ year. Like our original Barbera, the 2023 Reserve has the liveliness of aroma and flavour – the “spicy cherry’ that is the trademark of any fine Barbera. The Riserva has the deeper, more elegant Barbera d’Alba style which matches superbly with warm rich duck or pork and sumptuous creamy dishes.

2018 Nebbiolo is a return to a more traditional style of di Lusso Nebbiolo. With the customary lightness of colour and rose petal and tar aromas, the wine is high in both acid and tannin, ideal for longevity. This wine can be enjoyed for up to 15 years, eventually yielding a velvety texture and gentle cigar flavours.

This is a wine to enjoy with porcini funghi - on a risotto or tagliatelli base, and matches goats cheese very well indeed.

Native to Sicily, Nero d’Avola is one of Italy's best-known and respected wines. Medium-bodied, its sweet tannins and peppery plumb flavours remind one of a gentle Shiraz. This wine will provide a good match for hearty beef and pork dishes.

SKU: Sangiovese 2018

Our version of this famous red blend "Super Tuscan" style from the Marrema sub-region of south-west Tuscany. The Cabernet Sauvignon component gives the wine its firm structure. Flavours of blackberry and blueberry  are attributes of the Cabernet and Barbera, while its savoury touch comes compliments of the Sangiovese. Toasty French oak carries across the palate, with flavours of chocolate and spice. Match with just about any red meat or hard cheese.

SKU: Il Palio 2022
 

Lagrein's flavour sits in the darker fruit spectrum. A very intense inky colour with aromatics of dark berry, chocolate and spice. A rich, quite fruited mouth-coating palate balanced by hints of aniseed. A wine that becomes rich and smooth with time. Reportedly genetically related to Shiraz, a good companion for beef or venison stew
