Description
In a nutshell:
A plummy Cabernet, full of sunshine and a touch of the charcuterie board, proving that big flavours needn't bellow to be heard.
The lowdown:
A sip of this McLaren Vale cabernet is like finding a cheeky grin behind a scholar's spectacles. First up, a burst of cassis, rich and juicy, but then things get interesting. Hints of tobacco and damp earth emerge, whispers of a life less ordinary. The surprise? A dash of something savoury, almost like a whisper of a well-aged cigar. It's all held together by a vibrant acidity, a reminder that this isn't just a party, it's a well-dressed one. Turns out, a secret's to blame - some of the grapes take a little detour, shriveling like playful raisins, concentrating their flavours. Aged in seasoned oak casks, it all comes together - a delightful little jester with a surprisingly complex character.
The Producer:
Mitolo, a McLaren Vale gem, is a family affair with a touch of la dolce vita. Established in 1999 by Frank Mitolo, his Italian heritage informs their love of good food and fine wine. Partnering with winemaker Ben Glaetzer in 2001, they've become a winning team. From the delightfully quaffable Jester range to their critic-pleasing premium wines, Mitolo offers something for every wine lover. Their coastal McLaren Vale vineyards benefit from cooling sea breezes, perfect for crafting wines with vibrant acidity and complex flavours.
When to drink:
Open this big-hearted red on a Sunday alongside a roast leg of lamb with all the trimmings, or savour it with a deeply flavoured mushroom risotto on a cosy weeknight.
Suitable for Vegans
