Koerner Adelaide Hills Sangiovese 2023 is a bright, medium-bodied red from Damon and Maddy Koerner, capturing the Adelaide Hills’ cool-climate energy in a vibrant Italian-style expression. Grown at Balhannah’s Deanery vineyard, it offers fragrant red fruit, spice and long, fine tannins with effortless drinkability.

Red cherry, raspberry and cranberry leap from the glass, joined by fresh alpine herbs, wild mint and a gentle spice note. The Koerner 2023 Adelaide Hills Sangiovese is lively and pure, with crisp acidity and chalky, mouth-coating tannins that feel finely detailed rather than heavy.

Pour this bright Adelaide Hills Sangiovese with wood-fired pizza, chargrilled lamb, slow-cooked pork ragu, tomato-based pasta or grilled vegetable skewers. Its juicy red-fruit profile and savoury herbal lift make it a cracking barbecue red, equally suited to a relaxed midweek dinner.
