The red wine bargain of the year!! Can I leave the review at that? This Berton Vineyards Alfresco Lagrein from the Riverina is an absolute belter!
Dripping with juicy fruit, there is a neat, flirtatious, savoury thing going on too. A variety that has its origins in north-west Italy, blackberries, dark cherries and baked blueberries consume the flavour profile with fine shards of dark chocolate, licorice bullets and an alluring sprinkle of dried herbs. There is a terrific polish and beauty here with sooty tannins keeping your attention focused until the very end, leaving soft and powdery feels to ponder. A superb drink for 20 bucks, charge at this.
