First Drop Minchia Montepulciano 2019 (6 Bottles) Adelaide Hills

First Drop ‘Minchia’ Montepulciano, crafted by Matt Gant in the Barossa Valley, is a bold, old-vine expression of this classic Italian variety. Sourced from dry-grown vines, it opens with aromas of black cherry, blackberry and plum, laced with savoury notes of leather, spice and dried herbs. The palate is powerful yet refined, offering layers of dark fruit supported by firm tannins, bright acidity and a distinct earthy minerality. Extended maturation in seasoned oak adds depth and polish. Highly acclaimed by critics, Minchia is a profound, cellar-worthy Montepulciano that seamlessly marries Italian tradition with Barossa intensity and finesse.
