2019 Dalfarras Sangiovese

Full Description

A family affair that that began in 1991 with my wife Rosa (nee Dal Farra) and I launching a range of wines that would reflect our respective talents ; mine as a winemaker and Rosa as an artist. Daughter Hayley broadened the family involvement bringing with her a new generational perspective and energy, and a passion for the environment.
There is a strong Southern European presence with the varietals that make up the range - reflective of Rosa's Italian heritage, and no better witnessed than with this latest Sangiovese release.

Like my mother, its roots are Italian so enjoy with robust, meat-based pastas. Hayley Purbrick

Don't take our wood for it ...

"Dalfarras is by Nagambie’s esteemed Tahbilk Winery and the Purbrick family. Made from Clare Valley and Goulburn Valley grapes, this Italian variety makes a bold statement. A savoury, peppery nose with ripe blackberries, black cherries and dried oregano on the palate, with a hotter than average growing season justifying the ripeness and high-ish alcohol. Dusty tannins to finish. Stands up to red meat. Drinks better the next day. Let it breathe."
