A soft and supple wine with intense aromas of ripe red berries. Round with velvety tannins. Food match: savoury pasta dishes, veal chops and seasoned cheeses.

This is richly fruited and fabulously aromatic on the nose showing blackberry, blueberry compote, vanilla, toasted hazelnut and cocoa characters. Passofino Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is full, flavoursome and delectable, delivering rounded mouthfeel and fleshy texture, leading to a lingering sumptuous finish.

The AAA on the label pays homage to David's days in the wool trade and was stamped on the best grades of wool by the Guesser. It is a vibrant blend of approximately 62% Shiraz and 38% Grenache from some special little pockets amongst our vineyards. The Shiraz was selected from the ‘Gateway' and ‘Jones Block’ vineyards, renowned for producing some of the best fruit in the region. These select parcels were blended with complimentary Grenache to create a wine that is engaging to a wide range of drinkers. Our blend is fun, appealing and, unlike some members of Paxton, not over the top.
