Calabria Three Bridges Durif 2021, Riverina, AUD $29.95

Matured for 12 months in a blend of blend of 90% American oak and 10% French oak hogsheads and barriques.

Opaque core into a deep ruby rim. Blackberry compote and cigarbox aromatics. Concentrated black fruits on entry with cigarbox and pepper spices showing across the middle. Grainy tannins build tension, carrying and drying the finish nicely. (Screwcap)
