Giovanni Armani Giorgio Rosso Del Giorno 2018 - Barossa Valley, South Australia
The Story
Steve Crawford, a winemaker and Carlo Jensen, a graphic designer, have been friends and colleagues for many years but it wasn’t until recently that they started their own project together. “For the last year-and-a-bit we’d joked about creating stupid Italian pseudonyms and making affordable and delicious Italian-style vino that we’d flog from the boot of a clapped out Fiat 500,” says Carlo. “Shortly before the 2015 vintage commenced some well-hung fruit became available to us and Fattori G.A.G. was born.” Their wines are meant to be fun, easy drinkers that are reminiscent of Italian table wines.
M+Q Notes
100% Sangiovese picked early from the Barossa Valley Hoffmann vineyard. Aromas of strawberry jam, plum and tobacco leaf. Bright raspberry, ripe cherry and savoury spice on the palate balanced by vibrant acidity and soft tannins.
Food Suggestion
