The 2023 'Roko' Montepulciano is an energetic, approachable red that balances fruit-forward vibrancy with savory depth. The wine’s thick-skinned grapes deliver a striking dark purple hue, while the nose evokes power and intensity with notes of charcuterie, olive tapenade, and a hint of meatiness. On the palate, a lively, puckering fruitiness emerges—like a basket of freshly picked, slightly underripe mixed berries. The finish introduces subtle tannins, grippy savory elements, and a refreshing acidity that provides brightness and length. Perfect for pairing with pasta, pizza, BBQ, or even Salt and Vinegar Pringles, this is a red for all occasions.
Crafted from two separate picks on the Bassham Family Organic Vineyard in the Riverland, the earlier harvest brought tart acidity and green energy reminiscent of whole-bunch fermentation, while the later pick added weight and deeper fruit character. The final blend combines these elements seamlessly, creating a wine that’s flavorful, fresh, and incredibly drinkable.
Tasting Notes: Dark purple color, with aromas of charcuterie, olive tapenade, and earthy meatiness. The palate is bursting with mixed berry freshness, complemented by grippy tannins, savory undertones, and refreshing acidity for a balanced, all-season red.
