This wine is clear with a deep garnet bowl fading to a faint brickish orange rim. The wine is clean on the nose with medium intense aromas of morello cherry, stewed red plum with enhanced secondary developed characters of vanilla, cedar, clove, cinnamon and tobacco. The wine is dry on the palate with medium acidity, confirming stewed red plum and prune with emerging red cherry and rhubarb. Secondary and developed characters of vanilla, liquorice, cedar, clove, cinnamon, earthiness, leather and tar eventuate on the palate coupled with medium plus chalky tannins to create a full bodied but layered structure with a pleasant finish and generous length.
The reason why Andrew Peace Wines grows Sagrantino is due to Andrew, while in Italy sampling some Sagrantino. Andrew was so impressed with the potential of the wine he arranged to import the variety into Australia. It took nearly 3 years to have the grafts approved for planting in Australia. The first planting was 10 acres and that is still the largest planting of Sagrantino in Australia. The process of making this wine follows traditional Italian methods. After harvest, fermentation, and colour extraction, the wine is set aside and aged in U.S. oak barrels for 12 to 18 months, or until it reaches its optimum maturation. It is then lightly filtered and prepared for bottling.
Andrew Peace Wines has specialized in this sturdy, densely coloured Italian variety, with the 2016 and other previous vintages receiving critical acclaim for bringing a "dry structural focus of Italy" to Australian fruit. The Australia Felix range represents their premium, carefully crafted offering. Best paired with rich foods like roasted meats, game, and piquant cheeses.

"Brine and saltbush characters merge into juicy red and black cherry. This wine is both a bit different and a bit familiar, the combination of salty/rusty tang and sweet, berried fruit most appealing. Sagrantino is invariably tannic but this rendition keeps things relatively modest in that regard, though it has good shape. It's a lighter style and a good package all around."
