The grapes used to make "IL Favot" come from vineyards which have undergone periodical implantations, and so have a maximum age of 15 years. The skin contact is limited to 6-8 days so to extract few tannins and more colour from the skins themselves, with the result of getting a well-coloured wine with a remarkable softness.

The wine has a bright garnet color and a complex bouquet that unfolds with notes of red fruit, dried flowers, spices, and mineral undertones. On the palate, it is full-bodied with firm tannins, good acidity, and a persistent finish.
Medium bodied Sangiovese from Montalcino - vibrant and elegant with refined tannins - delicious!


Aromatically it leans towards morello cherry, cranberry and a little rhubarb, with dried thyme and a twist of black pepper sitting behind the fruit. The palate follows the same line — tart red berries, a hint of blood orange, then something earthier and more savoury through the middle.
Heady aromatics of cranberry, spiced cherry and forest coolness.
The palate is expansive and lengthy, coated with fine grain tannin and raspberry and pomegranate flavour.
Great persistence and structure indicate good medium-term cellaring.
We have teamed rich, juicy Shiraz with the savoury Sangiovese grape in this 'rogue' blend. The result is a full-bodied winter red brimming with plum, pepper and spice. Vibrant red berry fruit with attractive spice notes. The palate is full bodied with plum and pepper. The Sangiovese gives a burst of refreshing cherry fruit and a savoury finish. Spicy and elegant.
This is a multi-layered wine which shows the best of McLaren Vale Shiraz. Intense bouquet of complex dark red fruits, herbs and spice. The aged Sparkling Red base gives the wine nuances of raisin and a soft, mellow texture. It has been made to be delicious on release but will age for a long time in the cellar.
