Coriole 2012 Sangiovese


Variety: Sangiovese
Region: Fleurieu, McLaren Vale
Vintage:  2012
Colour: Purple
Alcohol: 14.0%
Bouquet: Faint fruit and a hint of alcohol 
Flavour: Much better than the nose would suggest. Dense Christmas cake flavours (plum, dried fruits like sultanas,hints of vanilla and cinnamon)
Points: 84 (3+5+12+7+7+50)
Notes:  Part of our Sangiovese tasting. My problem with this one was its bouquet which was probably the least inviting of all the wines tried. Pity, because everything else is very positive for it
