A wine that has perhaps benefited from the cooler vintage. It’s very red fruited with plenty of plum and cherry, complemented by sweet oak spices, incense and a hint of white pepper. Not a lot of concentration, but palate is velvety, with soft, very fine tannins and juicy acidity before caramelised smoked bacon and mocha arise on the finish.
Born and raised in Naples, Italy, Andrea came to Australia in 2013 after graduating with an environmental science degree. While working as a waiter in between jobs, Andrea found he enjoyed hospitality much more than his previous career during a stint working at MoVida Sydney. After a short apprenticeship at 121 BC, Sydney’s ground-breaking gem for Lo-Fi Italian wines, and a few months with the Lotus Group, Andrea moved to Melbourne and reunited with Movida. He’s been curating the highly regarded Wine List at Movida Melbourne, including one of the country's finest Spanish selections, for the past 3 years while studying for the WSET diploma.
